Beautiful early scorecard, featuring a game between Phillips Academy and Yale, likely dating to the late 1880s. Printed on heavy card stock, the scorecard folds to 6" x 9", with some light staining and paper loss here and there, pencil writing on the cover, and heavy wear at the fold. The reverse exhibits five heavy glue stains with paper remnants, clearly the result of scrapbook mounting.  The game appears to have been a 5-3 Yale victory.
