Not only did SPORT focus on the superstars of the post-war era, but it paid homage to the great athletes of the first half of the 20th Century. A regular feature called The SPORT Hall of Fame profiled in lengthy detail the lives and careers of 70 superstar athletes, from baseball superstars Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Lou Gehrig and Walter Johnson to Jack Dempsey, Ben Hogan, Red Grange, George Mikan, Jim Thorpe, Jesse Owens, Johnny Longden and Joe Louis, to name a few.

SPORT published 647 issues comprising approximately 10,000 articles and 40 million words between September 1946 and August 2000. The SPORT photo library holds more than 150,000 images.

Together, those words and pictures represent one of the world's most significant historical records of 20th century sports, and today form the basis of The SPORT Collection.
