Book: Classic Baseball: The Photographs Of Walter Iooss Jr. World-famous photographer Walter looss Jr. presents classic images of baseball greats of the past 40 years, enhanced by the commentary of Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Dave Anderson.
Joe DiMaggio, Sandy Koufax, Cal Ripken, Sammy Sosa: more than mere athletes, these men, with their superlative physical skills, grace under pressure, and all-too-human foibles, rank as classic American heroes. Here, world-famous photographer Walter looss Jr. presents equally classic images of baseball greats of the past 40 years. Combining nostalgic postwar-era portraits with action shots of today's most popular players, and enhanced by the commentary of Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Dave Anderson, Classic Baseball offers the definitive illustrated account of the sport since the 1960s. Special features like a six-page gatefold, collages created by looss exclusively for the book, and several never-before-published images make this the natural follow-up to Abrams' top-selling Baseball's Golden Age. Publication will coincide with the opening of the 2003 baseball season.
