Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Small archive of material related to the short-lived American Baseball Academy founded in New York City by Malcolm Child and Phil Rizzuto in 1951. Child was apparently a bit of a hustler, and pitched the concept as part of a program to combat juvenile delinquency in Manhattan. The Academy was heavily staffed with professional ballplayers, mostly New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers, with Phil Rizzuto serving as president. According to an article published in a 1951 issue of *Reader's Digest*, the academy was "divided into Manhattan and Brooklyn branches, [with] 2400 boys from 13 to 18 doing nothing but learn baseball." The article was apparently overly hopeful; virtually no record of the academy exists after 1951 aside from four books published in The American Baseball Academy Library series. List: 1.
