1901 The Book of Sport. Massive and astoundingly heavy volume is number 124 from a limited edition of 1500, and is surely one of a much smaller number to survive to this date. The 400+ page book is heavily illustrated for its era, with many photographs. Golf, tennis, auto racing and yachting are the major subjects covered. A few loose pages and general handling wear, but still a fascinating read for the early sports historian.
