Rube Kisinger Scrapbook : scrapbook, 1905 - 1915.

This scrapbook is a collection of newspaper articles, correspondence and a few photos related to Kisinger's career in the minor leagues. It focuses mainly on the year 1915 when he played for the Nashville Volunteers. Near the end of the book, there are game accounts from 1907 and 1909. One item of note is an excuse from from the University of Michigan excusing Kisinger from classes for November 7 - 8, 1904. Above this form is a horse-drawn carriage with what appears to be men from a possible ball team.
