    Mint Condition: How Baseball Cards Became an American Obsession - 1st printing. By Dave Jamieson. When award-winning journalist Dave Jamieson's parents sold his childhood home a few years ago, forcing him to clear out his old room, he happily rediscovered a prized boyhood possession: his baseball card collection. Now was the time to cash in on his "investments," but all the card shops had closed, and eBay was no help, either. Cards were selling there for next to nothing. What had happened? In Mint Condition, Jamieson's fascinating history of baseball cards, he finds the answer, and much more - an original, captivating history about a tradition dear to millions of Americans. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 288 pages, Text (with 16 pages of full color photos). Cover price $15.95.
