This is a WOW. The first we have ever handled or seen in 40+ years. Fabulous crossover piece of Coca cola and baseball: a natural combination. Cover advertises "A correct version of that famous poem 'CASEY AT THE BAT' ".Some cover staining, as you can see. On heavy stock, marvelous inside content. Features wonderfully quaint touches: all-time records; 1909 averages; the line-ups from the first ever baseball game in Hoboken on June 19, 1845; Pittsburgh still spelled without the letter H; the New York American League team still called the Highlanders; and a major league all-star team referred to as the Sporting News All-American Team.
