Signed and inscribed on the front free endpaper by Stan Musial (HOF), sportswriter Bob Broeg, and sportscaster Jack Buck. Publisher's white, blue and yellow pictorial wrappers, with illustrations by Amadee of Musial to front wrapper, lettered in black. Very good, with a touch of wear to spine ends, light toning to spine, and a hint of rubbing to rear wrapper. Overall, a pleasing copy. FROM B&B: Stan "The Man" Musial is the greatest St. Louis Cardinal of all-time, spending his entire 22-year career with the team (1941 - 1944, 1946-1963), and one of the greatest hitters in MLB history. Early in his career, he helped form a dynasty in St. Louis alongside Enos Slaughter and led the team to three World Series titles in five years (1942, 1944, 1946). Some of his career highlights include 24 All-Star game selections (tied for second all-time), 3 NL MVP awards, and 7 NL batting titles. An exceptional player from the beginning to the end, he batted .330 in 1962 when he was a 41-year-old grandfather, falling just 16 points shy of the NL batting title. Summing up Musial's impact on the sport, Bob Costas said, "He didn't hit a homer in his last at-bat.He didn't hit in 56 straight games All Musial represents is more than two decades of sustained excellence and complete decency as a human being." He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1969 and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011. Bob Broeg (1918 - 2005) covered the St. Louis Cardinals for 40 years in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. He was awarded the J. G. Taylor Spink Award in 1979 and was inducted into the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Hall of Fame in 1997. Jack Buck, father of ESPN sportscaster Joe Buck, broadcast Cardinals games for nearly the entire second half of the 20th century (1954 - 2001, with a break in 1976). In 2014, he was inducted as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum. Signed.
