Veeck as in Wreck is one of my all time favorite books as well Rick. Max, Baseball the Fan's Game signed by Mickey Cochrane is the one item I regret selling, but still enjoy seeing it when it surfaces. I sold my signed copy back in 1989 when I was in college and needed the money(sold for $150). My father gave it to me when I was 12 and he thought that my grandmother had it signed by Mickey at a book signing at the J.L. Hudson Bookshop in Detroit. Though I still kick myself over the sale because of the family connection, the book was a beginning to a life long appreciation for the history of baseball and collecting baseball memorabilia. Sorry the files are so big.
