As for my multiple purchases, I have 5 different editions of Brooks's Our Baseball Club and 4 different editions of Everett's Changing Base

yup max, I have both. 60 page salesman sample sounds interesting. As long as we're talking about one of my favorite books, about 10 years ago I got to spend some time with Tiger pitcher Elden Aucker and at the right time I took out Who's Who and he flipped each page and gave me some editorials on each player.....Dale Alexander was a great hitter but he was too slow, Firpo Marberry lost his arm literally, late in life when he had it out the window as a truck went by, and more than i wish i video taped. It was great watching Elden turn the pages and acknowledge basically every player he saw. Great day. Great book.
