The greatest Victorian-era closet case since Oscar and Lord Alfred?
Schrieber said the game was likely bought by the mansion’s patriarch, William Wagonner, for his then 6-year-old son.
There are believed to be only 10 copies of the game left in the world.
The game has images of Cy Young and Buck Ewing.

Zimmer baseball game
I'll bet Julio Franco is there too.
If only that joke had been made in the intro.
I am guessing the unidentified player is George Davis, who is a Hall of Famer and was a teammate of Zimmer's for a time with Cleveland, where he mostly played third base. I can't come up with any other candidate. I wonder if he got left off the auctioneer's list because his name was similar to George Davies, and the person writing the blurb got a bit confused.
I like how Chief Zimmer not only landed the endorsement for the game, but also wangled a spot in it for his minor-leaguer brother...
I'll bet
Julio FrancoJesse Orosco's in it too.Vrhovnik tried to steal your thunder, but I just knew you could come through with a recycled joke too. As always!
Zimmer's Baseball, the game that dare not speak its name.
It looks damn hard for a righty to hit a home run. And triples to left? It must be channeling Joe Jackson! You could juice the ball, too, by using a ball bearing.
