Interesting publication can perhaps best be described as a mini-yearbook featuring the 1953 Detroit Tigers. Measuring 3.75x7.5" with the cover sporting a roaring tiger, "The 1953 Detroit Tigers," and "Compliments of Glendale Provision Co," the booklet was apparently either a giveaway or an insert in Glendale's meat products, with each page containing "a thumbnail biographical sketch of each player, together with a photograph in full color, and the player's signature." Of course, the signatures are replicas, but aside from some cover wear the contents present very clean and bright and the book overall is VG-EX.
