According to PSACard.com, little is known about the distribution or origin of this 12-card regional set, which was available in 1970 in the Baltimore area. Measuring 3-1/4" x 2-1/8", the unnumbered cards picture members of the Baltimore Orioles and include two poses of Brooks Robinson. The cards feature line drawings of the players with their last name in the plain white border below the sketch. The set was named after Carl Aldana, who supplied the artwork for the cards.

Included: Earl Weaver, Brooks Robinson Diving Face Showing, Brooks Robinson Diving Back Showing, Jim Palmer, Frank Robinson, Paul Blair, Boog Powell, Mark Belanger, Dave McNally, Dave Johnson, Mike Cuellar, Ellie Hendricks

While some cards have some centering issues and/or some light soiling, most cards have very nice corners and edges. Conservatively grading VG for the set overall.
