The encyclopædia of sport & games : with about 500 illustrations
An illustrated sporting reference published in London in 1912, covering sports and games broadly, with a leaning toward horses and field pursuits. Its pictures are sepia photographic plates of a mounted rider with a lariat, a mounted deer head trophy, a flooded marsh with waterfowl, and hounds working a field with a horseman. Designers might draw on their naturalistic, documentary framing of outdoor action and sporting life.
