LenK59 Hi all....long-time lurker here...post once in a blue-moon....i first discovered pre-war players during elementary school....you could order books in class and i ordered a book with short bios on what seemed like "ancient" ballplayers....Foxx, Gehrig, Ruth, Alexander, Young, Wagner, Johnson, etc.....was fascinated by the vintage b & w photograpy...they seemed "otherworldly" to me....and legendary from a long-gone era...this was back in the mid to late '60s..........any recollections?
