Baseball Photography of the Deadball Era
Baseball Photography of the Deadball Era has been released. Thanks in part to the interest created by JC's post, I have made it available sooner than planned.
https://chapmandeadballcollection.co...-deadball-era/ The Limited Signed Edition is available for purchase and immediate shipment. There are 1-100 numbered, hand custom stamped and signed copies. You will not want to miss out on this edition! Signed-Web.jpg The Standard Trade Edition is available for pre-order and will ship in July. Regular-Web.jpg I appreciate the support of everyone here and hope you enjoy perusing it half as much as I have writing it.

Here’s the link to the other thread to see the early reviews.
https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=335573 I wanted to get another copy to have for family and friends as this is an “Instant Classic”. Now, I won’t mind showing some wear on my other copy! PS, Jim please enclose that Matty card you know I want in your collection!

Here's my quote "if this book is not in your library, then your library is not complete!!"
Congrats to Jim, this book is AMAZING!!! |

I was finally able to go and get my advanced copy as a contributor to the book and it is amazing. Jim was able to compile in one book a wealth of information that had previously been spread out among a group of collectors. Centralizing the information must have been an enormous undertaking and he did it masterfully. It has to rank up there as one of the best reference books for any area of the hobby that I have seen. Congratulations to Jim and a huge endorsement to anyone interested in sports memorabilia to buy this book (whether you collect photography or not).

I received my copy today. Truly extraordinary. Aside from the selection of incredible photos, the text is wonderful. There is so much knowledge being passed on, but the writing style is relaxing and so enjoyable to read. (Sometime reference books like this can bludgeon you with information in a way that is not enjoyable at all but quickly become a drag to get through.) Just floored by how concise and beautiful the writing is. I fear if I don't put the book down now I'm going to be up for hours. Bravo. All the accolades on this board to date I'm not sure do this book justice.
If the Baseball Hall of Fame or SABR have awards for the most important baseball book of the year, this has to be a frontrunner. Last edited by Snapolit1; 05-30-2023 at 07:42 PM. |

Wow! My copy came to work today, just got home and flipped through the first few pages. Same feeling I experienced when first watching Ken Burns documentary. Thank you Jim.
I also have now figured out who outbid me for any Type 1 photographs I ever bid on... |

I have spent quite a bit of time with the book the past week and I learn something new every time that I crack it open. It is a delight to leaf through the pages. The quality of the binding and pages is superb. The amount of research that Jim put into this venture is very evident.

My copy arrived yesterday and was waiting for me when I returned home today. It's a beautiful book that I've only had time to flip through, but I'll settle down with it for a closer look this week. I love that Jim's signature page features my favorite pre-war player, Charles Bender.

So many to choose from it's hard to pick one but the Jones, Cobb, Crawford shot in Pittsburgh for the 09 series is a favorite. I was the under bidder on that one, glad it went to a good home.

Just Got the 100/100 Edition which will remain in the box untouched! One book to use and one book to collect!

Copy #67 arrived last Friday. I'm blown away by the quality of this book, both in content as well as print quality. I probably spent four hours going through it this weekend. As a vintage photo collector myself, this was money well spent.

Got mine today. Fantastic!
Props to whoever the printer was. I've got bookcases and bookcases of books, and I'm not sure I've seen one as nicely produced as this one. Love the choice to go with the thicker satin finish on the pages. Really makes those older photos pop, like I haven't quite seen before. Thanks for what must have been an extremely challenging (and expensive) undertaking. |
