Smithsonian Baseball : inside the world's finest… di Stephen Wong
The illustrations alone would merit the inclusion of this book among my favourites but the photographs of a cornucopia of baseball memorabilia are accompanied by analysis and commentary by an enthusiastic expert with an informed love of baseball.
½
Covers the highlights of the game through descriptions of uniforms, gloves, trophies and memoriblia of the games and its greats.
Stephen Wong has combined his obvious love of baseball with his experience in writing the adult book, Smithsonian Baseball, to create Baseball Treasures - a collector's look at balls, bats, gloves, jerseys, cards and other baseball memorabilia - pitched to fans ages 10 and up.
Art photographer, Susan Einstein's, superb photos of many of baseball's greatest treasures (including the legendary Honus Wagner card and Ty Cobb's 1927 jersey), accompany this comprehensive look at baseball collectibles. Although the cost of collecting is certainly mentioned throughout, (2.35 million for that Honus Wagner card!) it is apparent that Stephen Wong loves the game of baseball for its place in American history. Through these collectibles, he offers a glimpse into the storied past of baseball and its heroes.
A great book to read aloud with your baseball fan.
A home run for baseball lovers.… (altro)
