A batter and catcher take center stage in this 1895 lithograph from the Calvert Lithograph Company, a Detroit firm known for colorful sporting and advertising prints in that era. By 1895 baseball was the country's most popular professional sport, and catchers still worked without the modern mask and chest protector that became standard later. The picture captures the game at that stage, when a simple moment of play could be turned into a bold, decorative image.
