This 2DVD set is an unimaginable worth — it has over 5 1/2 hours of nice footage for round 15 bucks. Whoever put this documentary collectively did an amazing job of developing with principally all the precise footage of key performs and moments within the historical past of the World Collection that you can ask for (even all the way in which again to the start), and tracked down interview footage from the important thing contributors. I rated the 2DVD Yankee historical past set as additionally being important — principally, this makes a superb companion. The World Collection set may attraction to baseball followers usually a bit extra, as a result of regardless that it has tons of Yankee footage (clearly), there may be of footage of a lot of the guys you’d need to see (Mays, Aaron, Bonds, Williams, Brooklyn Dodgers/NY Giants, and so forth.) Very compelling viewing, whether or not you are a novice fan or somebody who has seen a long time price of baseball – it introduced again a ton of nice recollections and makes you notice how usually there are actually nice, historic moments in just about each Collection.

The Best Sports Video I’ve Ever Seen
I rented the “100 Years of the World Series” DVD and will be purchasing it from Amazon. The show covers every World Series since 1903, when it began to 2002. And we’re not talking a 10 second mention per World Series. The show is approximately 3 1/2 hours long, so each series is given a fair amount of time, especially the more recent years as the participants are still alive to give their recollections. The great video clips, even from the first decade of the century, make it a terrific show. The best part for me was the segment on the 70s, which was when I discovered the game. Lots of great memories. Bob Costas narrates and he does a great job as he doesn’t “wax poetic”, which he has a tendency to do in his everyday job.There are interviews shown with Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Pete Rose, Tommy Lasorda, Dennis Eckersley, Joe DiMaggio, Leo Durocher, Eldon Auker (a pitcher for Detroit in the 30s, a very entertaining storyteller), Kirk Gibson, Derek Jeter, Tom Glavine, Jim Palmer, Sandy Koufax and on and on.I’ve seen many sports documentaries and this one will be the one in which they are all judged in the future!

Nice history
It is a nice history of the World Series. It is a bit long. I realize they needed to cover the history and it would be difficult to do it a short video, but I had to stop about half way and finish later. It is good.

GREAT DVD for History buffs or Baseball buffs
I am both a history and a baseball lover, so this is one of my favorite DVDs! It’s packed with footage and interviews of players, many of whom have since passed away. The very early days are less covered because the topic is the World Series and that was not organized until 1903, but every year (through 2002) is featured in logical order by decade. This also makes for good piecemeal watching if you don’t want to sit through all the hours (!) at once. This is a really well-done documentary on the history of the World Series, so that most anyone would enjoy it, whether a fan of the game or not.

AWESOME DVD
This is the best dvd I have ever seen on the history of the world series. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well the very old world series’ were covered. If you can find this dvd priced at $20 or less, buy it. However, since it is rare now, don’t be taken advantage of by some of the scumbag gougers who try to sell it for $40 or more. It definitely is not worth that ridiculous price.

Worth the money
This is a truly excellent series. My 10yo son who loves baseball really enjoyed it. It is not exciting enough to watch continuously, so he takes a break. But very well done and worth the money for the extended collectors edition, which has much more detail.
