Great document Leon...you can really peek into the beginnings of our hobby as it exists today (with the emphasis on baseball/sports issues) as opposed to Burdick's efforts to include practically all paper ephemera in his catalogs/research. It seems like Egan was responding to a need amongst collectors to have more specialized and detailed listings, as well as understanding the collector's desire to have example photographs of each issue, just like in our modern guides. Thanks for sharing!
