Default 1956 Vest-Pocket Encyclopedia of Baseball

320 pages jam packed with information. Measures slightly larger than 4 x 3 x 1 inches.

Portable pocket-size edition of Turkin and Thompson's Baseball bible of the 1950s.

Statistics are quite rudimentary with annual games played and batting averages.

No wonder Bill James wanted more data.

This 1956 edition is complete with toning on the pages and some modest creasing on the cover.

Neat little glimpse of reference material available in 1956.

$15 shipped or make offer.

Thanks for looking.
