Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist. . .Card Collectors' CompanyDETROIT TIGERS1952 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.
