Original Old Time Radio Shows - Fiction - 10 CASSETTES with 32-page exclusive collectible baseball booklet - 10 hours

Publisher, Radio Spirits, Inc. (April 2004)

Yogi Berra is one of the greatest catchers and clutch hitters in the history of baseball --- and perhaps the most beloved athlete of our time. His heroics on the field and his humanitarian efforts made off it remain the stuff of legend. And his one-of-a-kind observations have fashioned him into an oft-quoted American folk hero --- with such quips as "it's deja Vu all over again" and "A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore." Yogi's love for the game began when he was a boy in St. Louis, playing sandlot ball and listening to games and players on the radio. Through these shows he got to know the players, who inspired him to live out his dream. In this collection, Yogi has personally selected the old-time radio programs that remind him of what the game was like, many starring his dear friends. Whether they were hamming it up or giving an interview, these baseball stars mesmerized a nation and helped bring Americans together in a love for the game. Listen along with Yogi to this collection and share this as well as the 32-page exclusive collectible baseball booklet with your friends, family and all the fans in your life. And remember: 90 percent of baseball is half mental.
