Author appearance: Bob Woods

September 12, 2012

The author of Yankee Greats: 100 Classic Baseball Cards will be the featured guest at the Bergino Baseball Clubhouse in Manhattan on Thursday, Sept. 20, at 7 p.m.

Woods was a guest on a Bookshelf podcast back in June.

From the press release:

Yankee Greats features 100 baseball cards of the greatest and most popular New York Yankees from the celebrated trading-card company Topps.

Showcasing original cards for legendary players such as Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra and Derek Jeter, this unique package provides a fun and fresh approach to revisiting America’s pastime.

Yankee Greats will let all baseball fans revel in and reminisce over many of the players that helped make baseball the game it is today.  These legendary cards will fill you with fond memories, whether you’re young — or young at heart.

Bob Woods is a freelance writer who grew up in upstate New York during the 1950s and 1960s, loving the Yankees and collecting Topps baseball cards.  His affection for the Yanks only increased when he moved to NYC after college, and later intersected with his career after he teamed up with Topps to create Topps Magazine.  Bob’s ongoing association with Topps ultimately led to this labor of love.

RSVP is suggested, by contacting the Clubhouse.
