There are 13 issues of Hall of Fame second baseman Rogers Hornsby's publications designed to help young players hit and play specific positions. The 24-page issues are all from the 1940s, are in EX-MT condition and one is signed by Hornsby on page 3. A cartoon based on Hornsby's "Greatest Baseball Day" is included in each. "The Rajah" played 23 seasons in the majors, primarily with the St. Louis Cardinals, and compiled a brilliant .358 career batting average, second only to Ty Cobb in the all-time annals.
