Hi,

The cards that you have are from the 1949 Yakyu Timu Awase set. Yakyu means baseball in Japanese and there are at least 70 cards in the set. Your cards are:

Giichiro Shiraki P Tokyu Flyers #18
Hiroshi Tsujii 1B Taiyo Robins #12
Fumio Fujimura 3B Hanshin Tigers #10
Akira Noguchi C Chunichi Dragons #6

The 2 symbols underneath the photo are the team's ownership name: ex.: Chunichi
Directly below that is the team nickname in red: ex.: Dragons
Both of these are read left to right. Underneath the nickname is the player's last name and position in black that is read vertically from top to bottom: ex.: Noguchi Catcher
In the bottom right corner is the uniform number in a red circle, and the team's logo flag is under the player's last name and position.

Hope that this information is helpful to you.

Jeff
