Over one hundred and thirty years ago, pioneers arriving in Colorado during the Civil War era brought the game of baseball to the high and dry Rocky Mountains frontier. From the days of games in pastures with no gloves to the high drama of Coors Field and the Colorado Rockies, baseball and Coloradans have had a love affair that has continued to flourish over the decades.

In They Came To Play: A Photographic History of Colorado Baseball, historians and avid baseball fans Duane Smith and Mark Foster have collected the finest historic baseball photographs of teams, players, and games from around the state. They are all here, the town teams, company teams, early professional clubs, and the ethnic teams that made baseball an integral part of the life and times in Colorado's mountain towns, prairie hamlets, and bustling frontier cities. Combined with the wonderful photographs and captions is an essay that brings baseball's rich heritage in Colorado to life for the reader.

Absolutely love this! Arrived in a timely manner and it’s very versatile. Blocks the light on our porch on a hot day. Very durable and stable product. The color was as expected and there is no assembly required.

Looks ok if you don't look too close. Not likely to last long.
Color: Light Beige, Size: 6-Panel, Color: Light Beige, Size: 6-Panel
Got here fast, which was great since our company "upgraded" its video conferencing software and virtual backgrounds no longer work. But I can only describe the item as rickety and sloppily built. See photos: visible gaps in the weave that show the frame through. Chewed up screws in the hinges look like someone took them out and put them back in several times... or salvaged them from another unit. On the whole, it doesn't seem sturdy. I'll be folding it up and re-deploying it several times a week, so I'll be surprised if it will still stand up in a year. Not a good value for the price, really, except that demand on these right now has prices pushed upward. I'd be happy enough if I'd spent $39.99 rather than over a hundred.

Smooth, Stable, and Perfect for Flexible Spaces
Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey, Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey
This room divider is incredibly easy to move thanks to its industrial-grade silent casters. It glides smoothly across different floor types with just one hand and without any noise, while the built-in wheel locks keep it firmly in place once positioned, no slipping or unwanted movement. The base with reinforced steel feet adds impressive stability, preventing wobbling even in busy or high-traffic areas. I also love the foldable design, which makes storage effortless when it’s not in use. It folds down compactly and fits neatly into small spaces. I gave only 4 stars because I'm not crazy about the color of the fabric. Otherwise this is a very functional way to separate areas.

easy to put together, stable and blocks out unwanted eyes.
Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey
If you live in a high rise building, or where there is lots of foot traffic and can see in your windows, this is a must have. It's portable, can fold down one or two walls and easy to move around. Put together once, and block out light and eyes while tall enough to see over. You can fold it up along the wall, and use it to block out the blinds or light when using a projector so that it's darker. You can use it to partician the room if you share one, and separate your pile of junk from your room so you don't look at it, can take quite a bit of towel weight and clothes and doesn't tip over. Sturdy bottom metal and easy to put together. I got the grey one, and glad I did. I use it everyday and is part of my room decor. I love it, and after using it for a few months it's quite durable. The quality is there for sure. A tad pricey, but worth it. Must have for a private person.

Well made dividers.
Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey
Very durable and stable. Once positioned, they stay upright and firm and don't wobble around. Good materials on both the panels and the frame that supports it. Great for any partitioning needs and a fair price for the quality you receive. Highly recommended.
