NBA historians and New York sports fans will derive extreme pleasure from this phenomenal collection of 28 hard-to-find programs from the first year of the New York Knicks (1946-1947) and the NBA (then known as the BAA). All the books were sold at the 69th street armory or old Madison Square Garden. The first edition of the Knicks finished at 33-27 and in third place in the East Division of the 12-team BAA. This group of programs would take quite some time to duplicate, and their conditions average EX with a few better and a few worse. There is some Duplication and one second-year program from the 1947-48 season.
