Description:Peck and Snyder American Athletic Journal sporting goods catalog, c. 1880s (VG). Outstanding, original catalog "devoted to the interest of the American athlete" folds out to a remarkable (32) pages front and back, advertising everything from the company's "new all clamp roller skates," patented in 1881 ($6 for the pair) to the 1884 Professional League Ball ($1.50 each) to the "improved catcher's mask" for $2.50. Black and white catalog features attractive illustrations and interesting writeups of the products throughout. Catalog is very fragile but remains intact with some separation at the fold lines, along with scattered staining and general wear: VG.
