Periodically we experience problems with our scanner. Today is one of those days. Depending upon which view you choose, the first scan may show horizontal lines and/or cross hatching marks. Rest assured, these are not on the photo.

521+ pages In depth biographical information

Biographical Dictionary of American Sports: BASEBALL "A-F" * Hank Aaron to Carl Furillo | 1st of 3 volumes

Edited by David L. Porter ~ Published by Greenwood Press

A great bargain in today's book market, this first (of three) volumes features brief bio's of BASEBALL standouts, from Hank Aaron to Carl Furillo. 

Hardback edition with 521+ pages - each 6.25 by 8.75 inches in size.

Condition: Ex-Library in Very Good shape

Important Note: Our scanner sometimes acts up, causing the scans to show yellow wavy streaks and small square-like shapes. The streaks and square-like shapes are NOT on the cards or photos.

Postscript: Our last scan has nothing to do with this listing. It is a picture of all-time baseball great Ted Williams with The Baseball Hobbyist's Steve Mitchell at a 1983 Connecticut sports collectors show - Ted's very first-ever collector event. On the second day of the gathering "The Splendid Splinter" visited with collectors and dealers and graciously posed for this photo. (Photo was taken by fellow collector-dealer Bob Thing, longtime Maine hobbyist).

Important: Shipping Information

Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low. Our primary objective is to sell cards and other things of interest to baseball hobbyists - not make money by overcharging on shipping. If you ever believe you are being overcharged on shipping, please email us and we will double-check the facts of the matter. Thank you!

  • U.S. residents: We combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate.)
  • All Other Countries: Email us first. Many listings indicate shipment to U.S. or U.S. & Canada only, but we actually ship worldwide.
  • To receive your combined shipping, please wait for us to send you a combined invoice. The eBay checkout system usually displays an incorrect shipping charge. (It is normally too high.) Please do not pay for each item separately; if you pay separately, there is no shipping discount.
  • We pack your order carefully - sandwiching cards between cardboard and utilizing boxes, bubble wrap, etc., as necessary - to ensure your items arrive in the condition you expect.
  • Items are shipped the next business day. We ship 5 - usually 6 - days each week.

Payment should be made within 7 days after invoice has been received. Library
