1915 Cincinnati Reds & Major League Baseball Schedule Book by Henry Straus Cigars

Offered is an exceptionally rare 1915 schedule book measuring 2.5" x 5.5", produced by Henry Straus Cigar Shop in Cincinnati, Ohio. The shop distributed these booklets as they also served as a box office for Reds tickets. The book features 12 interior pages with schedules for every Major League team, including the Reds (with a page listing their 1914 statistics), the Boston Red Sox (featuring Babe Ruth), and the Philadelphia Phillies, who met the Red Sox in the 1915 World Series.

Founded in 1880, Straus Tobacconist is the third-oldest continuously operating tobacco shop in the United States. The Straus brothers moved their retail location to its current Walnut Street address in downtown Cincinnati, where it has remained for over a century. The shop is still in business today, known for its historic storefront and signature pipe tobacco blends.

An extensive search has turned up no record of another example ever appearing for sale. A genuine fresh discovery.
