Nope, it's a 1974 Who's Who in Baseball with Nolan Ryan on the cover.
I found this recently for a buck at my local Half Price Books. They had a small stack of them in the Clearance section, but this was the only one I was interested in because of Nolan Ryan.
It wasn't until I got home that I saw there were other player photos inside the front and back covers. The other photos seem to be of other leaders from that season. If I go back to HPB this week, I'll have to check the other copies to see if there are any other Angels inside of those.
Interesting that it cost a buck in 1974, and that's what I paid for it last week. A buck in 1974 is equivalent to $6.40 today.
The book is filled with all the players career statistics. The first section is hitters followed by the pitchers.
This is inside the back cover. I can see where if there are any Angels inside the other issues, I'd probably just tear that page out and toss the rest of the book. This book however I'll keep intact.
The '73 World Champions get the back cover.
Anyone else have any Who's Who in their collection?
I have never seen any of these books before. Rod Carew was one of my favorites with the Twins. A buck well spent!
ReplyDeleteI think I may have one or two.
