Grade 5-9-- Companies such as Topps, Fleer, Upper Deck, Donruss, and Score are familiar to avid baseball-card fans, but need to be known by beginning collectors. Ford's entertaining and informative book relates the history of the cards, including the above producers; the kinds of sets available; and buying, selling, trading, and preserving them. Guidelines and cautions on starting a collection, as well as developing and preserving it are practical and appropriate for new hobbyists. Excellent-quality, full-color photographs on every page are backed by geometric shapes in cerise; this color adds vibrancy to the pages. --Janice C. Hayes, Middle Tennessee State University, Murfreesboro
