In one game, as part of a barn-storming tour in the mid-1880s, Arlie entertained a small crowd of fans by promising after the game was over to leap off a nearby church steeple into a quart bottle of milk. Vintage ink signature, “Arlie Latham,” on an off-white 5 x 2.5 card. Some scattered light soiling and two pencil notations to top corners, otherwise fine condition.
