    YOU ARE BIDDING ON
    A BEAUTIFUL
    YEARBOOK / MAGAZINE.
    MEASUREMENTS:
    The background is divided into 1" Squares; This should assist with the size; This magazine measures about
    10 13/16" x 8 7/16" x 3/32";
    There are
    29
    numbered pages
    PLUS a few more pages without numbers.
    COVER:
    TEXT:
    Negro Baseball; Pictorial Year Book; 25 Cents; 1944 Records; World's Series Review; East-West Classic; All-America Team.
    PICTURES:
    There are 3 Pictures (Front & Back Covers); Plus several other pages;
    The photo above is a 1945 Negro Baseball Yearbook; This edition of Negro Baseball features Washington Grays' pitcher
    Ernest "Spoon" Carter
    on the cover; Note that he is not only wearing his Homestead Grays uniform but, in full military regalia; Carter is tossing a Baseball &  Hand Grenade; Also, on the Grays' uniform is a patriotic shoulder patch featuring the United States flag; This information does not appear inside the magazine; I found this information on the Internet; So, it just might be 100 % Incorrect, OR 100% Correct, OR somewhere in-between.
    DATE:
    I don't see any publication date: I don't see any copyright date; I listed the date as 1944 / 1945;
    since it shows 1944 Stats; Possibly that indicates it was printed in 1945; The following statement appears below the table of Contents:
    "Reprinted from the Collection of Jerry Malloy by Stokesberry, Gould & Sons."
