Great idea for a thread Dynarl.

This isn't a book but I do feel it meets the basic criteria.

Here's one from circa 1910. The Big Train, Matty and Smokey Joe Wood offer tips on pitching. Good stuff!

This magazine, published in 1932, is where the training photos used in BABE RUTH'S BASEBALL ADVICE first appeared.

I don't attend autograph shows too often but had the thrill of having Rapid Robert sign this book about fifteen years ago. I remember Bob mentioned with some pride that it was still published in Japan (nearly forty years later).
