Plastic Heroes

Product Description Plastic Heroes recalls the summer of 1964 when childhood friends provided their own entertainment compliments of youthful imagination. Much of the summer was consumed by baseball with most of the enjoyment derived from games of their own invention. With no major league team in the Deep South, the author and his friends cheered on the Philadelphia Phillies during a magical summer which lifted their spirits and broke their hearts. About the Author Tony Gilbert lives in Albany, Georgia where he no longer collects baseball cards or roots for the Phillies. Since 1966 he has cheered for the Atlanta Braves. He is also the author of Coincidental Encounters.
