Excerpt from A Digest of the Foot Ball Rules for 1911: For Officials and Players Spalding's Athletic Library has had the advice and counsel of Mr. A. G. Spalding in all of its undertakings, and particularly in all books devoted to the national game. This applies especially to Spalding's Official Base Ball Guide and Spalding's Official Base Ball Record both of which receive the personal attention of Mr. A. G. Spalding. Owing to his early connection with the game as the leading pitcher of the champion Boston and Chicago teams of 1872-76. His interest does not st0p, however, with matters pertaining to base ball; there is not a sport that Mr. Spalding does not make it his business to become familiar with, and that the Library will always maintain its premier place, with Mr. Spalding's able counsel at hand, goes without saying. The entire series since the issue of the first number has been under the direct personal supervision of Mr. James E. Sullivan, President of the American Sports Publishing Company, and the total series of consecutive numbers reach an aggregate of considerably over three hundred, included in which are many annuals, that really constitute the history of their particular sport in America year by year, back copies of which are even now eagerly sought for, constituting as they do tha really first authentic records of events and official rules that have ever been consecutively compiled.
