From BR Bullpen

In 1940 and 1941, the American Sports Publishing Company, which had put out both the Spalding and Reach Guides since 1935, consolidated both into a single edition. The publications were big (470+ pages each) with an additional 64-page detachable Book of Official Baseball Rules. The Spalding-Reach Guide lasted only two years, giving way to Sporting News Baseball Guide in 1942.
