SABR pub of interest / membership deadline

[Archive]

I know a handful of you are SABR members...and I know that far more of you are interested in the deadball era. I just got an e-mail from SABR that you may want to consider:

"Batting second in the 2003 SABR publications line up is our latest heavyweight,
Deadball Era Stars: The National League. Editor and Committee chair Tom Simon
and the members of the Deadball Era Committee are working hard to put the
finishing touches on this 350+ page book that all 2003 members will receive,
probably in December. If you have a friend who loves the Deadball Era, tell him
or her that he or she has only until September 30 to join SABR for 2003 and
receive Deadball Era Stars as part of membership. Beginning October 1, all new
members will be considered 2004 members and get the 2004 publications schedule.
Anyone can join online at http://store.sabr.org."

I don't know what the book will retail for, but other SABR publications of this sort have gone into bookstores at $30 and more, so this alone is worth a good chunk of your investment. And if you have any interest in research or more detailed bb history than you can get from baseball-reference.com, odds are good you'll like what SABR has to offer.

<not an advertisement, though it's started to sound like one...full disclosure: I really like SABR.>
