Admired by vintage collectors today the 1948 Bowman baseball set was one of the postwar era's first mainstream sets. The 48-card issue features a close-up photo of the subject backed with player biographical information and an ad for Blony Bubble Gum. Despite being a relatively small set it remains a collecting challenge due to a difficult high-number series twelve tough single-printed cards and the rookie cards of Hall of Famers Ralph Kiner Yogi Berra Phil Rizzuto Warren Spahn Red Schoendienst and Stan Musial plus a number of other stars. Presented here is an incredibly attractive and clean complete PSA-Graded set strong enough to achieve the ranking of #14 on the Set Registry. A complete breakdown of the cards is as follows: PSA NM-MT 8 (4 cards): #1 7 14 34; PSA NM-MT 8OC (1 card): #20; PSA NM 7 (31 cards): #2 3 Kiner (HOF) 4 Mize (HOF) 5 Feller (HOF) 9 10 11 12 13 15 17 Slaughter (HOF) 19 21 22 23 24 25 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 37 39 40 41 42 44 45; PSA NM 7 OC (1 card): #38 Schoendienst (HOF); PSA EX-MT 6 (10 cards): #6 Berra (HOF) 3 Rizzuto (HOF) 16 26 35 36 Musial (HOF) 43 46 47 48; PSA EX 5 (1 card): #18 Spahn (HOF). A wonderful set well over half of which grades NM or better strong enough to rank #14 on the PSA Set Registry. 48 cards total.
