Berk Ross came and went fairly quickly, issuing just two sets in 1951 and 1952. The lack of an associated confectionery product may have limited their appeal as, perhaps their unusual, sometimes garish printing did as well.  In 1951 they issued a multi-sport set in two card panels, while the 52's were baseball only.  The SGC 5 1951 card of the Scooter was neatly separated from its partner and has some interesting colors.  Both corners on the left side look to has been slightly "hit" on a card that really shows the 1951 look of the set.  The 1952 Rizzuto in PSA 5 expands the 1951 pose and mutes the color a tad. Attachment nubs are visible, indicating a unique method of cutting and packing. The 1952 is a bright image for the set.
