I was finally able to go and get my advanced copy as a contributor to the book and it is amazing. Jim was able to compile in one book a wealth of information that had previously been spread out among a group of collectors. Centralizing the information must have been an enormous undertaking and he did it masterfully. It has to rank up there as one of the best reference books for any area of the hobby that I have seen. Congratulations to Jim and a huge endorsement to anyone interested in sports memorabilia to buy this book (whether you collect photography or not).

I received my copy today. Truly extraordinary. Aside from the selection of incredible photos, the text is wonderful. There is so much knowledge being passed on, but the writing style is relaxing and so enjoyable to read. (Sometime reference books like this can bludgeon you with information in a way that is not enjoyable at all but quickly become a drag to get through.) Just floored by how concise and beautiful the writing is. I fear if I don't put the book down now I'm going to be up for hours. Bravo. All the accolades on this board to date I'm not sure do this book justice.
If the Baseball Hall of Fame or SABR have awards for the most important baseball book of the year, this has to be a frontrunner. Last edited by Snapolit1; 05-30-2023 at 08:42 PM.
