Item description from seller

48 pp. Original wrappers, light wear, very good condition. While the first 36 pages are a text on skating, particularly figure skating, the most interesting item is in the short 12 page catalogue at the back. There is one page which features basket ball (sic) equipment and uniforms. This listing in an 1893 catalogue appears only 2 years after the invention of the sport in Springfield, Mass, making this one of the earliest appearances of basketball material for sale.
