1952 Bowman Gum BOSTON RED SOX Complete Team Reprint Set ~ ALL 16 cards A

Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist. . .Card Collectors' CompanyBOSTON RED SOX1952 Bowman Gum REPRINT Team SetPerfect for the team collector!The original cards from this set are approaching 70 years old! The great artwork based card sets of the fifties are reminiscent of a slower, steadier time and owning one takes the collector back to baseball of the immediate post-War era. Team sets - to say nothing of the full 252 original 1952 baseball gum cards - are fast becoming nearly unaffordable in high quality, excellent-plus/near-mint to mint condition like these.Offered here is a well-executed COMPLETE TEAM SET of cards. It is clearly marked REPRINT and is affordable by nearly all! It was issued three decades ago (in 1987) by the Card Collector's Company - which at that time had already been in business for more than thirty years. Card size of these reprints is approximately: 2-3/16" by 3-1/4". Original 1951-1952 Bowman baseball cards measure 2-1/16 by 3-1/8 inches. Cards of either size fit in standard 9-pocket top-loading collector sheets for easy and safe viewing.A collecting Tip: Before buying any team reprint set, check the seller's listing carefully to learn what is (and is not) included. Sometimes partial sets, near-sets or superstars-only sets are offered. This TEAM SET features every card from this team that was included in the 1952 Bowman Gum card set. It is comprised of players based on the team name indicated on the reverse side of the card - not necessarily as pictured. The reverse side, in some cases, contained team changes reflecting up-to-the-day trades.Every card you will receive is pictured.ANY number of these Bowman baseball team sets will ship for the single set shipping cost IF the buyer will request and wait for a combined invoice before paying.

Email us.Condition: Excellent to Near-Mint or better, EXCEPT #250 Delock which has a couple of small indentations.Who's Who in this complete team set?Vern "Junior" Stephens ~ Maurice McDermott ~ Johnny Pesky ~ Clyde Vollmer ~ Billy Goodman ~ Randy Gumpert ~ Bill Wight~ Gus Niarhos ~ Ray Scarborough ~ Fred Hatfield ~ Walt Dropo ~ Jim Piersall ~ Walt Masterson ~ Del Wilber ~ Mel Parnell ~ Ivan "Ike" DelockNote: Ted Williams was not included by Bowman in its 1952 set and therefore is not included here. There is very limited edition art card produced by The Art of the Cards which would fit seamlessly within this team set.Postscript: Our last scan has nothing to do with this listing. It is a picture of all-time baseball great Ted Williams with The Baseball Hobbyist's Steve Mitchell at a 1983 Connecticut sports collectors gathering - Ted's very first-ever collector event. On the second day of the show "The Splendid Splinter" visited with collectors and dealers and graciously posed for this photo. (Photo was taken by fellow collector-dealer Bob Thing, longtime Maine hobbyist)._______________________Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low.
