Offered here is the most sought after post war baseball card set. This is a fresh find which has been acquired from its original owner and has not seen the light of day in years. The set is a solid mid to high-grade grouping and is very consistent throughout. If you are a card grader we have gotten you on your way, (6) cards were sent to PSA for grading and include # 1 Pafko PSA 5 EX, 261 Mays PSA 8 NM-MT, 312 Robinson PSA 7 NM, 314 Campanella PSA 5 EX, 400 Dickey PSA 6 EX-MT, and 407 Mathews PSA 6 EX-MT very well centered. Additional highlights include, # 11 Rizzuto EX, 33 Spahn EX-MT, 36 Hodges NRMT (oc), 37 Snider EX, 59 Roberts EX, 65 Slaughter EX, 88 Feller EX-MT, 191 EX+, 175 Martin EX, 215 Bauer NRMT, 216 Ashburn EX (oc), 243 Doby EX, 268 Lemon NRMT, 315 Durocher EX+, 333 Reese VG-EX+, 357 Burgess EX-MT, 392 Wilhelm EX-MT, 406 Nuxhall EX+. The remaining balance of the cards grades 15% NRMT, 40 EX-MT, 30% EX, and 15% are just slightly lesser. One of the great things about this set is, as the numbers get higher the condition also gets nicer. Please remember Mickey Mantle card # 311 is not included in this set.
