Some of the extraordinary highlights featured in this book include: Babe Ruth's road jersey from his first season with the New York Yankees (1920), the sole surviving uniform from the infamous 1919 World Series, Joe DiMaggio's rookie uniform from 1936, the Boston Red Sox road uniform Ted Williams wore during his epic 1941 season, Jackie Robinson's Brooklyn Dodgers home jersey from the 1952 season, Bill Mazeroski's Pittsburgh Pirates home uniform worn to hit the game-winning home run in game 7 of the 1960 World Series, and a visual feast of rare uniform styles. Each of the 68 entries includes sumptuous photography of the uniform and associated memorabilia, as well as a poignant and lively narrative highlighting its significance. The book also features a first-of-its-kind illustrated compendium with elaborate definitions of relevant terms that every baseball fan and collector needs to know, ranging from the All Star Game Uniform to the Zig-Zag Stitch. This book is an absolute must-have for anyone who has ever loved the game of baseball"-- "Photography, essays, and research on rare game-worn uniforms that bear witness to baseball history"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.35702 Wo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35702 Wong Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.3570 Wo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35702 Wo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
