Measuring approximately 6 1/8" x 11 7 /8", broadside advertising a baseball game between the "Celebrated" M&K's of Council Bluffs, vs. the Atlantic team, clubs based in Iowa.  Exhibiting some noticeable wear, the piece exhibits some discoloration relating to age at the bottom-right edge, the upper-left corner long since torn away.  Some minor ink smudging is visible here and there, and the game scores have apparently been written near each team (the celebrated M&Ks gave up 18 runs to the Atlantic team).  Folded into quarters, the piece exhibits wear at each fold.  Still, an attractive and display-worthy baseball-related advertising piece.
