 Great Product - Faulty Packaging January 7, 2008
This Special Issue was purchased as a gift for an adolescent who is a big Cardnials fan. For this purpose, it was perfect. Unfortunately, the packaging for the magazine had rounded corners so the magazine came with slightly damaged corners. For our nephew this was no problem, but for the collectors we know this would have been a reason to return the item. Other than the bent corners of the magazine, the item was in perfect condition and came promptly. Over all, we were very satisfied.
 Cardinals Lovers! June 27, 2007
This is a great gift for any St. Louis Cardinals fan. I bought it for my boyfriend who loves baseball and the St. Louis Cardinals and he was very impressed with it. It had a lot of interesting facts about the Cardinals in it along with a lot of history about the team. A great find for a reasonable price!
A "MUST HAVE" for a Cardinals fan February 24, 2007

I bought this for my husband who has been a life-long Cards fan. In checking it out before giving it to him I found myself reliving the exciting moments of the '06 Series, and was really happy that I'd ordered it. The fact that this was the first season in their new stadium and then to take home the championship is truly an occasion for celebration and acquiring a piece of memorabilia such as this. Sports Illustrated captured the memorable moments of each of the key players excellently and then topped it off by assembling a team of the "all-time" historical greats. I thought this was a nice addition.
I did have to send my first copy back as it had a bit too much shelf wear including bends, wrinkles, and worn corners, but Amazon over-nighted a new copy to me and it was much better. I heated the sticker with my hairdryer and it peeled right off, improving the appearance, though there is still a price scan mark and numbers.
I highly recommend this item for any Cardinals fan. Where else can you find a compilation of this much information, SI's unbeatable photography, and downright fun for the price?
That's A Winner January 24, 2007

Sports Illustrated presents a nice keepsake of the Redbirds 2006 World Series championship. The eighty-four pages combines SI's usual excellence in photography and journalism. And only a few pages of advertising interupts the flow of photos and articles. Cardinal fans (and fair-minded others) will enjoy Richard O'Brien's perspective on what makes baseball in St. Louis a special and generational experience. The volume capsulizes the NLDS, NLCS and Series, highlighting key game moments, pivotal managerial decisions, and includes line scores from each contest. The commemorative includes interesting bios on Albert Pujols, emphasizing his consistency and work ethic and Chris Carpenter's transit from journeyman pitcher and injury to Cy Young winner and "stopper". Let the debate begin, as the issue suggests the greatest to wear the "Birds on the Bat". The issue closes with Ted O'Leary's profile of Stan Musial, the modest Redbird who (somehow and inexcusably) escapes many discussions of baseball's greats. Read this article and you'll understand why Musial should be in the mix. Why buy this edition? As Stan The Man is fond of saying, "Why not."

It is a nice issue, but I wanted to frame it and it has a lot of stickers on the front with barcodes and things like that. Thank you.
