Posted By: <b>Scott Mosley</b><p>Leon, please excuse the somewhat off topic post since its not related to Pre WWII vintage but...<br /><br />Does anyone know of any websites/books that I could look at as a resource that shows pictures of various Topps/Bowman wrappers through the years (particularly the early 1950s).<br /><br />I'm looking for something as comprehensive as possible that shows the various Topps and/or Bowman issues from the 1950s and the wrappers that they came in.<br /><br />Please post or email me directly if you can point me in the right direction.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Scott

Posted By: <b>Daniel Bretta</b><p>The old Sport American price guides have color pictures of the wrappers that you are looking for:<br /><br /><a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img286.imageshack.us/img286/9686/wrappers7nv.jpg" border="0" width="1324" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img286.imageshack.us/img286/6083/wrappers25ex.jpg" border="0" width="618" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /></a><br /><br />Hope this helps.

Posted By: <b>Anthony</b><p>Apologize as well if this answer is off topic.<br /><br />Mark Murphy's unopened pack guide is a good source of images for packs/wrappers and the boxes the packs come in. He sells it for $5. I believe, and it can often be found on ebay. His id is BBcardkid.<br /> I'm just about to shoot images of all the wrappers I own, most of the Topps, Bowman, Leaf and Fleer issues, along with Goudey's and Playballs (got it back to vintage there). I'll send you a link when I do.<br /> Dan McKee has images of the more obscure ones, I believe, although he might be missing a George C Miller wrapper.
