That book is fantastic...well worth picking up. It has pictures of almost every card in many old sets such as T205, T207, T207 (I think), and T3. It goes all the way to from the early 1900's to the 1955 Bowman set. |

I was gifted this book back when it came out in 1987 and I abused the heck out of it. After I picked up a nice clean copy on ebay a couple of years back, I mounted and matted some of the images from the book that fell apart and have them hanging on my wall. I actually made so many wall-hangings I ended up selling a few on ebay to cover my cost. |

Own it. Love it. Sometimes hard to get in and out of the bookshelf, as it stands like 15" tall or something like that. In my office baseball library. But it's a beauty. |

Occasionally, a card will be left out. Oh--no Topps! (HE has a separate book for Topps, through '85--but the pictures are SMALL... |

The book is fantatic with large color pictures of most cards from popular sets. I have owned at least four copies over the years...sold one, gave one as a gift, used one so much it fell apart and i gave it away. |

i think the seller should have listed this in the pre 1930 baseball cards catagory. it's a great buy @ $20.00 even in very used condition. thats what i paid when they cleared them out of book stores about 15 years ago.great buy! |

I got a like-new copy off eBay last year for $76.50 (about four bucks a pound). I bid on it as if I would never see another copy again. No regrets. The book is indispensable. You got a great deal on a great book. |
