There's a historic park around where I live called Greenfield Village. It's a piece of property that Henry Ford bought and then imported a bunch of historic stuff to be preserved. Among the things they have there are Edison's workshop, the Wright brothers' workshop, Merriam Webster's house, and a bunch of other interesting things; Ford was a big time history buff. Also, in the summer time they play old time baseball on a field in exactly the style you're referring to, dead balls, no gloves, replica bats and uniforms from real teams who played 19th century ball. It's really pretty cool.
