The magazine was influential in promoting the legends of players like Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, and Christy Mathewson, and contributed to the sport's cultural rise in the early 20th century. As one of the few consistent national baseball publications of its time, Baseball Magazine helped establish baseball's identity as America's pastime.Offered is an August 1939 issue of Baseball Magazine featuring recently retired Lou Gehrig.
