Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
First published as trading cards in 1990, these out-of-print watercolour images by award-winning artist Mark Chiarello are now collected for the very first time in book form, along with incisive text by Jack Morelli and 39 brand-new images created especially for this book, including portraits of Satchel Paige, Hank Aaron, and Jackie Robinson. The legendary Negro Leagues are regarded with reverence and awe, and play a vital role in grey history. The publication of these cards marked the very first time most of these players ever appeared on baseball cards.

This book preserves an important aspect in the history of baseball and in African American history, and it does so in a riveting way. A sincere and fascinating tribute -- and a handsome one, to boot.
