The 400 Fan Club’s next Zoom program on Tuesday, February 23, will show many photos from and preview two new books celebrating Braves history! 

The first, available now in the Braves Clubhouse Store, is a photo book tracing the team’s 150 year history through high quality photos.  It features a forward and introduction by Braves CEO Terry McGuirk and Hank Aaron as well as pages devoted to historical uniforms, artifacts, and Braves Hall of Famers.  It is divided into three sections covering the Boston, Milwaukee, and Atlanta eras.

The 2021 season marks the Braves 150^th Anniversary (1871-2021).  The second book, coming this spring, is a historical narrative presenting the story of our team in two sections.  The first looks at the Braves’ 15 decades featuring the best, the worst, and the most interesting moments and characters for each decade.  The second section is a ranking of the best players in Braves history at each position.

Program presenter Sam Wallace is a Braves historian and archivist whose responsibilities include Ballpark Tours, Heritage and Hall of Fame.  As co-editor of the photo book and author of the history book, Sam will:

• Share photos from and narrate an overview of both books followed by Q&A 
• Preview Braves 150th anniversary events and celebrations on tap for 2021
• Present a brief history of scoreboards in Braves history
