Synopsis:
Baseball fantography is a celebration of baseball through the eyes of fans via approximately 25 0 photos they have taken of players, stadiums and related subjects over the past 75 years along with essays, sidebars and quotes. The project originated when veteran baseball executive Andy Strasberg discovered and old photo of himself as a teenager in the 196 Os with his idol, Roger Mans at Yankee stadium. He realised that he couldn't be the only one with these hidden photographic gems and Shorty thereafter, went on a mission collecting thousands of photos of every aspect of the game taken by fans. Now, in a 4-colour book this collection becomes more than a pile of photographs. It is a comprehensive volume of history. Lore and trivia divided into about 25 chapters on various aspects of baseball culture.
About the Author: Andy Strasberg was the San Diego Padres marketing department from 1975-1 996. After that he founded his own consulting firm.
