| I agree that this is the most comprehesive book around, but is my index the only one whose page numbers are not accurate? It must have been otherwise it could not be ranked a 5-star book by everyone else. |

| If you're an avid collector of baseball cards seeking a definitive, weighty valuation guide offering comprehensive coverage from 1867 to modern times, don't miss the extensively updated, expanded 2004 Standard Catalog Of Baseball Cards, edited by Bob Lemke. While the heart of this thirteenth edition of the "bible" of baseball card collecting lies in its supstantial pages of detailed valuations, there are also over 12,000 clear black and white photos and over 11,000 sets of cards listed, from team issues to postcards. |

| If you're a card collector, this is the book for you. Every set imaginable is listed by card #, example photo, and value. It even shows card set variations. For example, the 1916 Altoona Tribune set is actually the same as the 1916 The Sporting New set with a different back. This has been an invaluable tool in my quest of the complete Pete Rose collection, as well as, giving me a renewed enthusiasm for the players of old. |
