Synopsis
Surprisingly, the largest collection of baseball memorabilia in America is not housed at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, but at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. Harry Katz, a former head curator of the Prints and Photographs Division of the L.O.C. and his team raided the vaults to compile this astounding collection of historical photos, vintage documents, baseball cards, program excerpts, newspaper clippings, advertisements and more to serve as a definitive first-hand history of America's pastime. The medium of photography and the game of baseball each became popular and prevalent around the turn of the twentieth century, and BASEBALL AMERICANA magnificently traces their intertwined development, with a veritable treasure chest of cherished photos of classic players, teams, fans, and stadiums, as well as insightful essays from baseball historians.
