Before and After Jackie Robinson, A Story of the Brooklyn Dodgers Told Through the Lens of Tickets and Passes

Dan Busby has been a baseball memorabilia collector and researcher for over 60 years. He is a prolific author with over 70 editions of 14 books authored or co-authored. Recognized as one of the premiere baseball “ticketologists,” Dan’s writing reflects the detailed approach of a CPA, which he is. Still his book tells the big picture story, while weaving in important details. In Before and After Jackie Robinson: A Story of the Brooklyn Dodgers Told Through the Lens of Tickets and Passes, he combines his research and writing experience with his vast collection of Brooklyn tickets, passes, photos, and more. The book provides comprehensive information covering the team from pre-1900 to 1957 and brings the Dodger story to life. It covers the stunning legacy of Jackie Robinson and how he broke the shameful baseball color line.\nAn unusual feature of the book is that there are 20-short videos that may be accessed free online. Dan appears in each video and relates the videos to the content of the book.\nThis coffee-table sized book is in full color on heavy stock to assure that the hundreds of tickets, photos, and other images do not “bleed” through from one page to another. He has also written another baseball memorabilia book: Before and After Babe Ruth: A Story of the New York Yankees Told Through the Lens of Tickets and Passes.
