After reading Andrew Stout’s thoughts (below) it occurred to me that my first exposure to the baseball aesthetic my tumblr celebrates came from This Great Game, a book I’ve had for as long as I can remember. According to the faded inscription from my Aunt Anna, who gave This Great Game to my brother and me (“the best little sports fans in the world”), it’s been in my possession since September 2, 1971, when I was four years old.

I picked this up at Cameron’s yesterday. It’s a coffee table book published by Rutledge in 1971. Inside are extraordinary photos; essays from temperaments as diverse as Roger Angell and Earl Weaver; oh, and a layout that sticks to the classic grid common to a lot of magazines and architectural theory books from the ’60s and ’70s. That sort of trickle-down Bauhaus style every commercial artist from the time seems to have picked up from Jan Tschichold.

Most of the book’s photos were taken during the 1969 and ‘70 seasons. Aesthetically, this is the absolute heart of my favorite baseball period. It was a time of intense transition, from both a fundamental and cosmetic standpoint. The tension of a burgeoning era is the subtext to nearly every page in this book. [more]
