Hardcover. Small 4to. Yellow cloth with black spine lettering, pictorial dust jacket. 119pp. Illustrations. Near fine/very good. Lower right front board corner slightly bumped; jacket faintly edgeworn. Handsome, tight first edition of this surprisingly scarce how-to. Bauer (1922-2007) was the famed New York Yankees (1948-59) and Kansas City Athletics (1960-61) right fielder who went on to manage the Athletics (1961-62), Baltimore Orioles (1964-68) and Oakland Athletics (1969); in 1966 he led the Orioles to their first World Series title. This special copy bears a unique frontispiece, for tipped to the blank leaf facing the title page is a signed head-and-shoulders portrait of a smiling Bauer in Yankees uniform. Very good. This printed photograph shows tape stains at each corner and lower edge center. Bauer signs large and bold in blue ballpoint across the center. Jacket front panel boasts, "How to Master Hitting, Running, Fielding, and Pitching, Told by a Great Player and Manager," and this he does in twelve concise chapters. Exceptional copy of this quite uncommon title.

Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. Folio. Spiral bound flexible red plastic *Life Magazine* wrappers. Binder is near fine with a little light wear. Clear sheets enclosing fifteen fine, original black and white, or sepia-toned photographs of baseball player Hank Bauer when he was manager of the World Series-winning 1966 Baltimore Orioles. Each photo has the back mark of *Life Magazine*, and the name of the photographer. Ten are by Bob Gomel and are labeled for an article "Baseball - Hank Bauer," the other five are by Jerry Brimacombe for an article "Sam McDowell." Sizes of each are approximately 8.5" x 13". Apparently prepared for two different articles, we can only presume that they were given to Bauer in this presentation folder. Bauer is pictured alternately pensive, playful, and pugnacious, including a series of photos of him nose-to-nose with an equally unhappy umpire. The hardnosed Bauer had been a Marine hero in WWII and was also noted as one of Mickey Mantle's preferred drinking partners when he played for the New York Yankees.
