Where can a used baseball with red and black stitching a friend said was from 1902 be analyzed?

American League baseballs with the Reach Trademark had Red & Blue stitching, and the National League Spalding Trademark baseballs had Black & Red stitching up until about 1934/35 when in both league started using only red stitching. If you have an official baseball you need to "analyze" the stamping on the baseball. You can the narrow down the era the baseball was made by the name of the league President that appears on the ball. Trademarks could also aid in dating the ball. See Related Links below for a Baseball dating guide. If the baseball does not have any markings then it will be difficult to date. The baseball you have has red, and black stitching as the national league baseballs did, and will date the baseball pre-1935. Non-Official balls might have been made after 1935 as well. Without any markings on the baseball it will have a lower collectors value.

Who decided the baseball should be red and white?

Dark leather was used for the cover of the earliest baseballs because it was readily available and easier for the players to see when the ball was hit in the air on a clear day. In fact, famed baseball writer Henry Chadwick advocated using a dark red leather base ball as late as 1875 and stated so in the 1875 DeWitt's Baseball Umpire's Guide. White baseballs were later introduced (1861) because most ball fields at the time had heavily wooded area back drops, and it was easier to see the white ball. American League baseballs with the Reach Trademark had Red & Blue stitching, and the National League Spalding Trademark baseballs had Black & Red stitching up until about 1934/35 when in both league started using only red stitching. Why red stitching was used instead of another color could be just by chance.
