Exceptional Schedule chronicling the 1894 Cincinnati Reds season a 55-75 campaign that resulted in a 10th place finish in the National League. Led by Hall of Famer Charlie Comiskey and featuring eventual Hall of Famer Bid McPhee and stars Arlie Latham and Dummy Hoy the team underachieved due to what appears to have been a lack of pitching. Despite being quite attractive the schedule exhibits some significant condition issues most notably having torn in half at the fold. The year has been written in black ink at the top of the cover and a corner clip at the upper-right mars the appearance further. The reverse which features player images including McPhee Hoy and Comiskey presents exceptionally well. Game scores have been filled in throughout the entire inside one tear repaired with clear tape and considerable toning discoloring the interior. Despite all this a historically significant interesting and display-worthy piece chronicling one team's entire 1894 season.
