Bowman Gum Co.'s premiere set was produced in 1948, making it one of the first major issues of the post war period. Forty-eight black and white cards comprise the set, with each card measuring 2-1/6" by 2-1/2" in size. The card backs, printed in black ink on grey stock, include the card number and the player's name, team, position, and a short biography. Twelve cards (#'s 7, 8, 13, 16, 20, 22, 24, 26, 29, 30 and 34) were printed in short supply when they were removed from the 36-card printing sheet to make room for the set's high numbers (#'s 37-48). These 24 cards command a higher price than the remaining cards in the set.

This card was one of 340 cards issued in the 1956 Topps Baseball Card set. The card set is quite similar to the 1955 Topps set, again using both a portrait and an "action" picture. Some portraits are the same as those used in 1955 (and even 1954). Innovations found in the 1956 Topps set of 2-5/8" by 3-3/4" cards include team cards introduced as part of a regular set. Additionally, there are two unnumbered checklist cards. Finally, there are cards of the two league presidents. William Harridge and Warren Giles. On the backs, a three-panel cartoon depicts big moments from the player's career while biographical information appears above the cartoon and the statistics below. Card backs for numbers 1-180 can be found with either white or grey cardboard. Some dealers charge a premium for grey backs (numbers 1-100) and white backs (101-180).

The 1954 Bowman set consists of 224 full color cards that measure 2-1/2" by 3-3/4". It is believed that contractual problems caused the pulling of card #66 (Ted Williams) from the set, creating one of the most sought-after scarcities of the postwar era. The Williams card was replaced by Jim Piersall (who is also #210) in subsequent print runs. The set contains over 40 variations, most involving statistical errors on the card backs that were corrected. On most cards neither variation carries a premium value as both varieties appear to have been printed in equal amounts. The complete set price does not include all of the variations of #66 Williams.

In 1951, Bowman increased the number of cards in its set for the 3rd consecutive year when it issued 324 cards. The cards are, like 1950, color art reproductions of actual photographs but now measure 2-1/16" by 3-1/8" in size. The player's name is situated in a small, black box on the card front. Several of the card fronts are enlargements of the 1950 version. The high-numbered series of the set (#'s 253-324), which includes the rookie cards of Mantle and Mays, are the scarcest of the issue.

Little is known about the origin of this 50-card set issued in 1914 and designated as E224 in the American Card Catalog. Measuring 2 3/8" by 3 1/2", the front of the cards feature sepia-toned photos with the player's name in capital letters and his team below in parentheses. The back carries a biography and nmost cards, though not all, include year-by-year statistics at the bottom. The words "Texas Tommy" appear at the top, apparently referring to the sponsor of the set, although it is still unclear who or what "Texas Tommy" was, and despite its name, most examples of this set have been found in northern California. There is also a second variety of the set, smaller in size (1 7/8" by 3") which are borderless pictures with a glossy finish.

For 1957, Topps reduced the size of its cards to the now-standard 2-1/2" by 3-1/2." Set size was increased to 407 cards. Another change came in the form of the use of real color photographs as opposed to the hand-colored black and whites of previous years. For the first time since 1954, there are also cards with more than one player. The two, "Dodger Sluggers" and "Yankees Power Hitters" began a trend toward the increased use of multiple-player cards. Another first-time innovation, found on the backs, is complete player statistics. The scarce cards in the set are not the highest numbers, but rather numbers 265-352. Four unnumbered checklist cards were issued along with the set. They are quite expensive and are not included in the complete set prices quoted below.

This card is one of 407 cards in the 1952 Topps set, the largest set of its day- both in number of cards and physical dimensions of the cards. Cards in this set are 2-5/8” by 3-3/4” with a hand-colored black and white photo on front. Major baseball card innovations presented in the set include the first-ever use of color team logos as part of the design, and the inclusion of stats for the previous season and overall career on the backs. A major variety in the set is that the first 80 cards can be found with backs printed entirely in black or black and red. Backs entirely in black command a $10-15 premium. Card numbers 311-407 were printed in limited supplies and are extremely rare.

Cards found in the first two series of the set (#'s 1-72) are the scarcest in the issue. The backs of the final 72 cards in the set (#'s 181-252) can be found with or without the copyright line at the bottom of the card, the "without" version being the less common.

This card is one of 250 cards issued in the 1954 Topps set. This set was the first issue to use two player pictures on the front and is very popular today. Solid color backgrounds frame both color head-and-shoulders and black and white action pictures of the player. The player's name, position, team and team logo appear at the top. Backs include an "Inside Baseball" cartoon regarding the player as well as statistics and biography. The cards measure 2-5/8" by 3-3/4" and include manager and coaches cards. This was the first set to use two players together on a modern card; the players were, appropriately, the O'Brien twins.

The 1954 Bowman set consists of 224 full color cards that measure 2-1/2" by 3-3/4". It is believed that contractual problems caused the pulling of card #66 (Ted Williams) from the set, creating one of the most sought-after scarcities of the postwar era. The Williams card was replaced by Jim Piersall (who is also #210) in subsequent print runs. The set contains over 40 variations, most involving statistical errors on the card backs that were corrected. On most cards neither variation carries a premium value as both varieties appear to have been printed in equal amounts. The complete set price does not include all of the variations of #66 Williams.

In 1949, Bowman increased the size of its issue to 240 numbered cards. The cards, which measure 2-1/16" by 2-1/2 inch are black and white photos over-printed with various pastel colors. Beginning with card #109 in the set, Bowman inserted the players' names on the card fronts. Twelve cards (#'s 4, 78, 83. 84, 88, 98, 109, 124, 127, 132 and 143), which were produced in the first four series of printings, were reprinted in the seventh series with either a card front or a back modification. These variations are noted in the checklist that follows. Card #'s 1-3 and 5-73 can be found with either white or grey backs. The complete set of value in the following checklist does not include the higher priced variation cards.

In 1951, Bowman increased the number of cards in its set for the 3rd consecutive year when it issued 324 cards. The cards are, like 1950, color art reproductions of actual photographs but now measure 2-1/16" by 3-1/8" in size. The player's name is situated in a small, black box on the card front. Several of the card fronts are enlargements of the 1950 version. The high-numbered series of the set (#'s 253-324), which includes the rookie cards of Mantle and Mays, are the scarcest of the issue.

This card was one of 340 cards issued in the 1956 Topps Baseball Card set. The card set is quite similar to the 1955 Topps set, again using both a portrait and an "action" picture. Some portraits are the same as those used in 1955 (and even 1954). Innovations found in the 1956 Topps set of 2-5/8" by 3-3/4" cards include team cards introduced as part of a regular set. Additionally, there are two unnumbered checklist cards. Finally, there are cards of the two league presidents. William Harridge and Warren Giles. On the backs, a three-panel cartoon depicts big moments from the player's career while biographical information appears above the cartoon and the statistics below. Card backs for numbers 1-180 can be found with either white or grey cardboard. Some dealers charge a premium for grey backs (numbers 1-100) and white backs (101-180).

Issued as part of the 1953 Topps set of baseball cards, which reflects the company's continuing legal battles with Bowman. The set, originally intended to consist of 280 cards, is lacking six numbers (numbers 253, 261, 267, 268, 271, and 275) which probably represent players whose contracts were lost to the competition. The 2-5/8" by 3-3/4" cards feature painted player pictures. A color team logo appears at the bottom panel (red for American League and black for National). Card backs contain the first baseball trivia questions along with brief statistics and player biographies. In the red panel at the top which lists the player's personal data, cards from the 2nd Series (numbers 86-165 plus 10, 44, 61, 72, and 81) can be found with that data printed in either black or white, black being the scarcer variety.

For 1957, Topps reduced the size of its cards to the now-standard 2-1/2" by 3-1/2." Set size was increased to 407 cards. Another change came in the form of the use of real color photographs as opposed to the hand-colored black and whites of previous years. For the first time since 1954, there are also cards with more than one player. The two, "Dodger Sluggers" and "Yankees Power Hitters" began a trend toward the increased use of multiple-player cards. Another first-time innovation, found on the backs, is complete player statistics. The scarce cards in the set are not the highest numbers, but rather numbers 265-352. Four unnumbered checklist cards were issued along with the set. They are quite expensive and are not included in the complete set prices quoted below.

Several of the card fronts are enlargements of the 1950 version. The high-numbered series of the set (#'s 253-324), which includes the rookie cards of Mantle and Mays, are the scarcest of the issue.

Issued circa 1910 , this rare 12-card set was issued by candy maker J.H. Dockman & Son. The cards, unnumbered and measuring approximately 1-7/8" by 3-3/8", were printed on the front and back of boxes of candy sold as "All Star Base-Ball Package." There are two players on each box-one on the front, the other on the back-but the cards consist of crude drawings that actually bear no resemblance to the player named below the drawing.

The first ever set of Topps Baseball Cards appeared as a subset of 19 cards from an issue of 252 "Magic Photo" cards. The set takes its name from the self-developing nature of the cards. The cards were blank on the front when first taken out from the wrapper. By spitting on the wrapper and holding it to the card while exposing it to light, the black and white photo would appear. Measuring 7/8" by 1 1/2", the cards are very similar to Topps 1956 "Hocus Focus" cards.

This card is one of 407 cards in the 1952 Topps set, the largest set of its day- both in number of cards and physical dimensions of the cards. Cards in this set are 2-5/8” by 3-3/4” with a hand-colored black and white photo on front. Major baseball card innovations presented in the set include the first-ever use of color team logos as part of the design, and the inclusion of stats for the previous season and overall career on the backs. A major variety in the set is that the first 80 cards can be found with backs printed entirely in black or black and red. Backs entirely in black command a $10-15 premium. Card numbers 311-407 were printed in limited supplies and are extremely rare.

There is also a card of the commissioner, Ford Frick, and also one of Roy Campanella in a wheelchair. A handful of cards can be found with and without lines added to the biographies on the back indicating trades or demotions; those without the added lines added to the rare and valuable and are not included in the complete set price.

This card was one of 340 cards issued in the 1956 Topps Baseball Card set. The card set is quite similar to the 1955 Topps set, again using both a portrait and an "action" picture. Some portraits are the same as those used in 1955 (and even 1954). Innovations found in the 1956 Topps set of 2-5/8" by 3-3/4" cards include team cards introduced as part of a regular set. Additionally, there are two unnumbered checklist cards. Finally, there are cards of the two league presidents. William Harridge and Warren Giles. On the backs, a three-panel cartoon depicts big moments from the player's career while biographical information appears above the cartoon and the statistics below. Card backs for numbers 1-180 can be found with either white or grey cardboard. Some dealers charge a premium for grey backs (numbers 1-100) and white backs (101-180).

For 1957, Topps reduced the size of its cards to the now-standard 2-1/2" by 3-1/2." Set size was increased to 407 cards. Another change came in the form of the use of real color photographs as opposed to the hand-colored black and whites of previous years. For the first time since 1954, there are also cards with more than one player. The two, "Dodger Sluggers" and "Yankees Power Hitters" began a trend toward the increased use of multiple-player cards. Another first-time innovation, found on the backs, is complete player statistics. The scarce cards in the set are not the highest numbers, but rather numbers 265-352. Four unnumbered checklist cards were issued along with the set. They are quite expensive and are not included in the complete set prices quoted below.

The set consists of 320 cards that measure 2-1/2" by 3-3/3" in size. High-numbered cards (#'s 225-320) appear to have replaced certain low-numbered cards on the press sheets and are somewhat scarcer.

The 1954 Bowman set consists of 224 full color cards that measure 2-1/2" by 3-3/4". It is believed that contractual problems caused the pulling of card #66 (Ted Williams) from the set, creating one of the most sought-after scarcities of the postwar era. The Williams card was replaced by Jim Piersall (who is also #210) in subsequent print runs. The set contains over 40 variations, most involving statistical errors on the card backs that were corrected. On most cards neither variation carries a premium value as both varieties appear to have been printed in equal amounts. The complete set price does not include all of the variations of #66 Williams.

The card backs include statistical information for 1962 and career plus a brief player biography. The cards, which measure 2-1/2" by 3-1/2", are numbered 1-66. Ab unnumbered checklist was issued with the set and is included in the complete set price in the checklist that follows. The checklist and #46 Adcock are scarce.

The quality of the 1950 Bowman issue showed a marked improvement over the company's previous efforts. The cards are beautiful color art reproductions of actual photographs and measure 2-1/16" by 2-1/2" in size. The card backs include the same type of information as found in the previous year's issue but are designed in a horizontal format. Cards found in the first two series of the set (#'s 1-72) are the scarcest in the issue. The backs of the final 72 cards in the set (#'s 181-252) can be found with or without the copyright line at the bottom of the card, the "without" version being the less common.
