Incredible Production History
The set:
Divided into four unique series and tied together through 216 classic box score games and stories, it is a dynamic history of professional baseball … taking you from the 1800’s including the first recorded box score (1845) to the mid 1990’s. But this set is more than just box scores and reverse side short stories … it’s a true insight into the evolution of baseball and American history as seen thru analytics, the ‘Box Score Game Card‘.
Note: Use this link ‘1800‘to get a real feel for this collectible set.
A little backdrop history:
All the research, design layouts, graphics and typesetting were done in a period when there was only desktop publishing, and the internet was basically nonexistent. This was a period when access to historic baseball data was difficult to obtain (to say the least) and if existing, took months to retrieve, confirm and convert. This is one of the aspects that makes this set so unique and valuable.
Data Conversion:
You say convert! This was the stone age “¦ typewriter to 5 1/4 floppies to 2 1/4 IBM floppies 
, to Mac graphic discs to film. In all, three conversions (of over one million characters per conversion) that had to be proofed and signed off each time. And while this was going on, our printer’s partner decided to blow away (as in bang, bang) two of his partners. What a nightmare that was. But finally with all the unexpected events, data and trademarks behind us, the first ever Box Score Card Set became a reality.
Players, Teams & Games:
Players: Such as Honus Wagner, Sandy Koufax, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Stan Musial, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Boudreau, Cap Anson, Johnny Bench, Jackie Robinson, Reggie Jackson, John Smoltz, Duke Snider, Robin Yount, Mike Schmidt, Hal Newhouse, the Wright Brothers, the Waner Brothers, Al Spalding, Whitey Ford, Mickey Mantle, Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Cal Ripken, Ken Griffey Jr, John Smoltz, and that’s just a few of ’em!
Teams: Modern era teams as well as historic teams such as the Knickerbockers, Cincinnati Red Stockings, Forest City, Troy Haymakers, Atlantics, Colt 45s, Brooklyn Dodgers, Empires, Gothams, Providence Grays, St Louis Browns, and many more.
Games: Historic games involving the Yankees, Red Sox, Cards, Dodgers, Giant, etc. “¦ as well as games like the first Houston Colts 45 box score game and the White Sox 29-run game.
Finally, this set was produced in 1992-3 and with that, certain game cards are even more valuable because of records that have been broken since such as Roger Maris’s sixty-first home run game by Aaron Judge.

The Box Score!
Baseball box scores, oh how they shine,
A record of every hit, run, and line.
Innings pitched, batters faced,
Errors made pitches chased.
At a glance, we see the score,
And all the players who played before.
Names and numbers, a sea of stats,
A story of triumph or bitter facts.
The box score tells the tale,
Of every pitch, every hit, every fail.
From first pitch to final out,
We see the players give it their shout.
So, let’s raise our hats to baseball lore,
A record of every pitch and every hit, and more.
For they capture the magic of the game,
And keep the memories alive, all the same.
