Inhaltsangabe

"The Unforgettable Buzz is a thoroughly researched and cleverly written study of electric football. Every Baby Boomer who played the game - and that's all of us - will love this book."
- Ray Didinger, Pro Football Hall of Fame Sportswriter and NFL Films Emmy Award Winning Writer and Producer

"This is such a great book. It immediately took me back to those special moments of my childhood. Shores and Garcia have done their homework in opening a sacred portal to the past."
- Rick Burton, David B. Falk Professor of Sport Management, Syracuse University

The Unforgettable Buzz is the first and only book ever written on the topic of Electric Football. Yet it's about much more than just a game. It's about receiving the best Christmas gift ever - that's what Electric Football means to millions of Baby Boomers who grew up between 1950 and 1980.

Authors Earl Shores and Roddy Garcia have spent over a decade carefully weaving the timelines of Electric Football, Baby Boomer culture, and the NFL into perhaps the most complete "toy story" ever written. With over 300 images and a stunning cover-to-cover design by Marvel Graphic Artist Michael Kronenberg, Christmas morning is always just a page-turn away in The Unforgettable Buzz.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Earl Shores and Roddy Garcia have chased the story of Electric Football for almost two decades. During that time they authored numerous articles about the electric football for publications ranging from the Beckett Football Monthly to Toy Shop, and have been interviewed by print and video media on both the national and local level. Mr. Shores' long and accomplished writing career includes covering the International Toy Fair in New York City, as well as writing about sports and toys for Sports Illustrated, Highlights for Children, the Washington Post, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. Mr. Garcia established himself in the late 1980's as one of the country's premier toy collectors thanks to his efforts to establish GI Joe as a serious collectible. Through his decades of collecting he has developed a Wikipedia-like knowledge of toys, comic books, and guitars.
