RobertSI have a copy of this book (April, 1946 edition) -- bought it at a flea market for $15.
It's published by A.S. Barnes (predecessor to Barnes & Noble, I believe).
What I like about it is that like so many books it features profiles and photos of top ballplayers...but has one twist:
In addition to the usual suspects, there are a slew of more obscure non-HOFer names, such as Sockalexis, Donlin, Coveleskie, Adams, Fielder Jones, Altrock, Heilmann, Carl Mays, Chapman, Devore, Archer and Veach, to name a few.
Thin book, though at only 153 pages. I believe it used to be listed on the old SCD Memorabilia guide, before they acquired Tuff Stuff and began using the Tuff Stuff memorabilia guide book section in both guide books!
