Description

Volume 2 of The Infinite Baseball Card Set, a 124-page lavishly illustrated sampler of baseball’s forgotten heroes & stories.

The cast of characters and subjects range from well-known Hall of Famers to unknowns who should be known…  

On one page, you’ll find the story of Lou Gehrig’s semipro season in New Jersey, and on the next, you can read about what Hal Chase got up to after he was blacklisted from organized baseball.

Within the pages of The Infinite Baseball Card Set, I’ll take you from the rush to sign Cuban ballplayers of 1913 and try to figure out if Carl Mays was indeed a baseball villain or just a misunderstood pitcher with bad luck…

…and then take a side-trip to look at the history of the Ebetts Field scoreboard.

Each article is beautifully illustrated with bold, colorful images, and the stories are told in an engaging, fast-paced style. Special features of the book range from a study of what kind of cars the star players drove to a step-by-step look at how my illustrations are done. This is 124 pages of pure baseball joy, lavishly illustrated and told in the true tradition of diamond lore.

And if you haven’t already, please check out Volume 1 of The Infinite Baseball Card Set.
