The end of an era at The Sporting News

January 26, 2007

70tsnguide_1 The Sporting News and its parent company, American City Business Journals, have decided to suspend publication of the Baseball Guide and the Complete Baseball Record and Fact Book. There will be no 2007 edition of the Guide, and the 2007 edition of the Record and Fact Book will not appear in print. These decisions were made “for business
reasons.”

TSN had been publishing the Record Book, which went through several variations, for almost 100 years (1909) and began its version of the Guide in 1942; prior to that it had been produced by Spalding.

Pub73guideThe hopes are that the publications will appear on TSN’s website (sportingnews.com).
