DK Eyewitness Books: Baseball (Hardcover)

This is a hardcover edition of the 'DK Eyewitness Books: Baseball' published by Dorling Kindersley. The book features a vibrant cover design dominated by a large photographic close-up of a weathered baseball, with a college-style red font for the title 'BASEBALL'. The top section includes the iconic DK logo and smaller inset images of sports memorabilia like a batting helmet, a Honus Wagner card replica, and a pennant. Notably, this copy includes a 'CLiPART CD' as indicated by the text in the upper right. The physical condition shows signs of use likely associated with a library or school environment, evidenced by a large vertical barcode sticker and a label fragment on the lower left front cover that appears to read 'Eberle High School'. There is visible edge wear along the binding and corners. This educational book series is known for its high-quality photography and encyclopedic approach to subjects, typically targeting a juvenile to young adult audience. Based on the branding, this specific edition likely dates from the late 1990s to the mid-2000s when digital pack-ins like clip-art CDs were common.
