Amazing contributions. I have to admit that at first I thought the “old” card company founders wouldn’t stand a chance, as Frank Fleer and Enos Goudey were really just gum men. But we’ve gotten a good number of Jacob Warren Bowman nominations here and elsewhere and I am ashamed to say that I had no idea he was also behind Gum Inc/Play Ball prior to Bowman. Being the man behind two largely successful and influential card sets seems like it would carry weight. I’m still reading up about his history.
