’

s A th leti cL ibrary was e stabli shed in 1892 forthe p urpose of en cou rag ing athletics in every form, not on ly byp ubli sh ing the official rules andrecord s p ertaining to the various

p astimes, but also by instru cting ,

s Ath leti cL ibrary is unique in i ts own par

ticular field and has been concededth e g reatest edu cational ser ies onath leti c and p hy si cal training subjects that has ever been comp i led .

The p ublication of a d istinctseries of book s devoted to ath leti csports and p astimes and designedto occup y the p remier p lace inAmer i ca in its class was an earlyidea of Mr. A . G. Spalding . whowas one of the first in Americato p ubli sh a handbook devoted to

A. G. SPALDING ath leti c sp orts, Sp ald ing ’s Ofii cialBase Bal l Gu ide being the initial

number, wh ich was fol lowed at intervals with other handbook s on theSp orts p rominent in the

’7OS.

Spald ing’s Ath leti c L ibrary has had the advi ce and coun sel ofMr. A.G.

S pald ing in all of i ts undertaking s. and p arti cu larly in all book s devotedto the national g ame. Th i s ap p lies e specially to S p alding

S pald ing .owmg to h is earlyconnectionwi th the game as the lead ing p itcher of the champ ion Bostonand Chi cago teams of 1872-76. His interest doe s not stop , however, w ithmatters p ertaining to base bal l; there i s not a sport that Mr. S pald ingdoe s not make it h is business to become fami l iar with , and that theL ibrary wi l l alway smaintain i ts p remier p lace, w ith Mr. Spalding ’

s ablecounse l at hand.goes w ithout say ing .

The enti re series since the i ssue of the first number has been underthe d i rect p ersonal superv i sion of. Mr. James E. S u llivan, Presidentof the Ameri can S p orts Publishing Company , and the total series ofconsecuti ve numbers reach an ag g regate of con siderably over th reehund red , included in whi ch are many ‘

When Spald ing ’s Ath leti c Library was founded, seventeen y ears ago,

track and field athleti cs were p racti cal ly unknown outside the larg ercolleg es and a.few athletic clubs in the lead ing cities, whi ch gave occasional meets. when an entry li st of 250 comp etitors was a subject of

sport.and that in a p rofessional way ; basket ball had ju st been inventedath leti cs for the schoolboy—and schoolg i rl—were a lmost unknown. andan advocate of class contests in ath leti cs in the schools could not g et ahearing . To-day we find the g reatest body of ath letes in the world isthe Publi c S chool s Ath leti c Leag ue of Greater New York , whi ch has hadan entry li st at i ts annual g ames of over two thou sand , and in whoseelementary series

”in base bal l last y ear 106 school s competed for the

trop hy emblematic of the champ ionship .

Whi le S palding ’s Athleti c L ibrary cannot claim that the rap id g row thof ath leti cs in th i s country is due to i t solely . th e fact cannot be d en iedthat the book s have had a g reat deal to do with i ts encou rag ement, byp rinting the official rules and instru ction s for p lay i ng the variou s g amesat a nominal p rice. w ithin the reach of everyone, with the sole objectthat i ts serie s mig ht be comp lete and the one p lace where a p ersoncould look with ab solute certainty for the particular book in whi ch hemig ht be inte rested .

In selecting the editors and wri ters for the variou s book s, the leading authority in h is p arti cu lar line has been obtained , w ith the resu ltthat no collection of book s on ath leti c subjects can compare w ithS pald ing

Is in a,class by itself. It has no rival, even in approx imate excellence. It has attained

a degree ofperfection inmanufacture where the genius ofman seems unable to conceive ofany design for its improvement. The Spald ing Ball has reached this high stage of development from very modest beginnings. Time was when American boys had to be satisfied

with a base ball composed ofa slice from a rubber shoe, some yarn from their dad ’

s woolen

sock and a cover made of leather bought from the village cobbler and deftly wrapped and

sewed on by their patient mother, after her day ’s work was done. But that time is no

more ; for, whatever may_

be true of.the doughnuts and pics that mother used to make,

—and we all remember how good they were— the home-made creations of ourmaternal

ancestry inthe base ball line had to g ive way when the house ofA. G. Spalding Bros.

entered that field, and long ago the S pal d ing Official National League Ball

distanced all competition in the race for popular supremacy .

The game ofbase ball has become our National Game because its integrity has beenpreserved through many years. For identically the same reason, the S pald ing omcialNational League Bal l haswon its place in the high esteem ofall devotees ofthe sport.

L ike the game in which it is used, its integrity is above suspicion.

It is well for the youth of America to learn the lesson that while the cheapest thingsare very seldom the best things, the best are always the cheapest in the end. The price of

the genu ine S pald ing Ofli cial National League Bal l is each— no more

and no less. The market abounds with so- called League Balls, all listed at each,'

for the sole purpose of deceiving the purchaser and enabling the just as good dealer to

work the d iscount scheme on the boy who is not posted.

This is the reason why bright boys always insist upon the Spalding Ball and decline to

accept any substitute. To many parents, a ball is a ball : but to the American lad who

knows, only a Spalding Ball is the genu ine and Offic ial Ball of the game, and substitutionof something equally as good does not go with him, for he has learned that to becomea good ball p layer and get the greatest pleasure out ofthe game, he must use the same ballthat all the leading professional players

use— and this is the S pald ing Official

National League Bal l .

Equ ipment

A Standard Quality must be inseparably linked to a Standard Policy .

Without a definite and Standard Mercantile Policy , it is impossible for amanufacturer to longmaintain a Standard Quality .

Tomarket his goods through the jobber, a manufacturer must provide a profit for the jobber aswell as the retail dealer. To meet these conditions of Dual Profits, the manufacturer is obligedset a proportionately high list price on his goods to the consumer.

To enable the g lib salesman, when booking his orders, to figure out attractive profits to bothjobber and retailer, these high li st prices are absolutely essential ; but their real purposewill have beenserved when the manufacturer has secured his order from the jobber, and the jobber has secured hisorder from the retailer.

However, these deceptive high list prices are not fair to the consumer. who does not. and, inreality , is not ever expected to pay these fancy list prices .When the season Opens for the sale of such goods, with their misleading but alluring high list

prices. the retailer beg ins to realize his responsibi lities, and g rapples with the situation as bestcan, by offering

“

special discounts ," which vary with local trade conditions.

Under this system of merchandising , the profits to both the manufacturerand the jobberassured; but as there is no stability maintained in the prices to the consumer, the keen competitionamongst the local dealers invariably leads to a demoralized cutting of prices by which the profits ofthe retailer are practically eliminated.

This demoralization alway s reacts on the manufacturer. The jobber insists on lower, and stilllower, prices. Themanufacturer. in his turn, meets this deniand for the lowering of prices by theonly way Open to him, viz the cheapening and deg rading of the quality of his product.

The foregoing conditions became so intolerable that, ten years ago, in 1899, A. G. SpaldingBros. determined to rectify this demoralization in the Athletic Goods Trade, and inaugurated what

has since become known as The Spalding Policy .

"

The“

Spalding Policy"eliminates the jobber entirely , so far as Spalding Goods are concerned,

and the retail dealer secures his supply of Spalding Athletic GoOds direct from the manufacturerunder a restricted retail price arrangement by which the retail dealer is assured a fair. legi timate andcertain profit on all Spalding Athletic Goods. and the consumer is assured a Standard Quality and is

protected from imposition.

The Spalding Policy is decidedly for the interest and protection of the users ofAthletic Goods,and acts in twoways :

FIRST— The user is assured of genuine Ofi‘icial Standard Athletic Goods, and

the same fixed prices to everybody .

SECOND—As manufacturers, we can proceed with confidence in purchasing at

the proper time, the very best raw materials required in the manufactureOf our various goods,well ahead of their respective seasons, and this enablesus to provide the necessary quantity and absolutely mainta in the SpaldingStandard Of Quality .

All retail dealers handling Spalding Athletic Goods are requi red to supply consumers at our

regular printed catalogue p rices— neither more nor less— the same p rices that S imi lar goods are soldfor in ourNew York, Chicago and other stores.All Spalding dealers.as well as users Of Spalding Athleti c Goods, are treated exactly alike,and no

special rebates or discriminations are allowed to anyone.

Positively , nobody ; not even Officers, managers, salesmen or other employee of A. G. SpaldingBros , or any Of their relatives or personal friends, can buy Spalding Athletic Goods at a discount

fromthe regular catalogue prices.This, briefly , is the

“ Spalding Policy , which has already been in successful operati on for thepast ten years, and will be indefinitely continued.

“

In other words, The Spalding Policy is a square deal ” for everybody.
