This is a near complete set with most cards containing square corners, bold color and a fresh appearance. Set is missing 22 cards (14 high numbers) including the last card, #252 Frank Crosetti. A very nice offering from this popular Bowman issue, often overshadowed by its larger Topps counterpart from the same year. Our consignor assembled many of these cards for nice eye appeal, with dozens of Near Mint or better cards scattered throughout the set. PSA 6 EX-MT is the grade assigned to the pair of key cards, both second year cards of Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays. Includes: #1 Berra (VG), 5 Minoso (NRMT), 4 Roberts (NRMT), 8 Reese (EX, trimmed along bottom), 11 Kiner (EX-MT), 21 Fox (EX), 33 McDougald (NRMT), 43 Feller (NRMT), 44 Campanella (VG, crease), 52 Rizzuto (EX), 53 Ashburn (EX-MT), 80 Hodges (NRMT), 101 Mantle (PSA 6), 115 Doby (NRMT), 116 Snider (NRMT), 156 Spahn (NRMT), 196 Musial (EX), 217 Stengel (EX-MT), 218 Mays (PSA 6), and 232 Slaughter (EX-MT). Grades 15% NM-MT, 40% NRMT, 35% EX to EX-MT, 10% GD to VG-EX.
