Default Reflections on 30 years of the Philly Show

Bob Schmerier and Ted Taylor created a 49-card set of 1948 Bowman-like cards that were available at the 1976 show at Spring Garden.
Shown here is part of a complete uncut sheet of this 49-card set . They were very professionally done with very informative bios on the
backs of them. This series of BB cards featured......

Connie Mack
Babe Ruth
Jimmy Foxx
Mel Ott
Musial
Ted Williams
Joe DiMaggio
Johnny Mize
Bob Feller
Jackie Robinson
Yogi Berra
Gil Hodges
Hal Newhouser





At the 1977 show Bob and Ted issued a 2nd series of 64 cards that were very similar in design as the 1st series. They advertised these
cards as a 1947 series.
