4.0 out of 5 stars The Bible of Baseball Cards, February 15, 2002

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Beckett Almanac of Baseball Cards and Collectibles (Paperback)
If you collect baseball cards you absolutely must have this book. It catalogs virtually every baseball card ever made, including variations and errors.

Why only four stars and not five? Subtle reasons, mostly. The main reason is that this book, despite being released recently, does not do a very good job of covering the professionally graded baseball card market. This is even more surprising as Beckett does have a grading service of their own. As such, the sections covering the history of baseball cards and how to grade cards is lacking and is pretty much a reprint of what's been appearing in Beckett books like this one for over fifteen years. They really could have done a better job of modernizing those sections.

However, as a reference book to help identity cards and give approximate values, this book cannot be beat. Buy it now!
