Bump for the new month. Be sure to check out all five books in the link above. You don’t have to be a fan of the Pirates to enjoy these topics, especially the stories of Moonlight Graham type players and guys who were on the active roster and never played

Bump
Dots Miller should be a popular player here with the vintage crowd. The Unlucky 13 is a nice little book telling about 13 players on the active roster who didn't get into games. Some of the stories are wild. Others have a happy ending elsewhere, unless you're a Pirates fan who realizes that they gave up Red Faber for nothing. Moment in the Sun is 20 Moonlight Graham stories in one. The 1890 Pittsburgh Alleghenys season was one of the worst in big league history and I broke it down day-by-day from Spring Training through a post-season exhibition tour. They Are Family covers all 27 families that have played together for the Pirates. Everything from a pair of Hall of Famers to brothers who played two games in one day with the team, then never played pro ball again. Something for everyone. All are priced reasonably.

It's been two month, so I'm bumping this again to get some spending money for Christmas. Right now my budget will get my four-year-old nephew a 1977 Mario Mendoza Topps card. I'm hoping to improve on that gift..
Lots of pre-war players mentioned in these books

Thanks for the purchases guys! I had notification by email checked on here and never got any notices of comments, so I'm just seeing them now. I appreciate all sales greatly!
There's a new book out just in time for the holidays. It has eight history articles on the Pittsburgh Pirates minor league system, as well as in depth reports on the top 50 prospects in the system. It's also available on Amazon. Released today with a $16.99 price tag. It's a great mix of history and prospect coverage. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G3XNY252
