Packed with pertinent statistical information along with wonderful period imagery, vintage baseball guides and magazines allow a modern reader to immerse themselves in the game of the past. We offer a collection of said material, with a group of 31 magazines from the 1940s/50s entitled “Sport”, accompanied by Street & Smith Pictorial Yearbooks for 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944 and 1946, Sporting News Record/Dope Books for 1938, 1940, 1949 and 1953, a Who’s Who baseball guide for 1940, a Baseball Register from 1947 and a few other publications. Highlights of the Sport magazines include covers featuring Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Christy Mathewson and others, with a few covers picturing other athletes including Rocky Marciano and Bob Cousy. The Street & Smith Pictorial Yearbook covers include a youthful Bob Feller in full release (1941) and manager Joe McCarthy at the plate (1944). The majority of the publications in the collection are in the mid-grade range and lower, with a number sporting damage including soiling, tears, spine damage and more. There is also a musty smell to the group.
