Here is the "real stuff" of baseball, the objects of a fan's obsession, those things that fire the imagination and trigger memories of unforgettable moments in games gone by. Ty Cobb's spikes, Lou Gehrig's glove, Babe Ruth's bat, Mickey Mantle's jersey, and more than 200 other genuine articles are featured in this delightful tribute to the game and to the players that forged its colorful history, from the early days to the modern era.Like an archaeologist digging for the remnants of earlier civilizations, photographer Bret Wills has unearthed amazing artifacts, including often overlooked memorabilia that are inextricably tied to the allure of a day at the ballpark: ticket stubs and press passes, an umpire's broom, a turnstile from a demolished stadium, a scorecard from the 1907 World Series, a scoreboard numeral, and much more.These objects and their stories provide an evocative journey through the great moments of baseball, as well as a fascinating look at the evolution of the game and its equipment.It's all here the heart and soul of major league baseball, the legends and lore, the bats and masks and gloves that helped shape America's favorite pastime.
