Here are my signed 1948 Bowman Reds cards...the only Reds player included in the set that I'm missing is Herm Wehmeier. If anybody has one, or knows of any leads, I would greatly appreciate the help! (Wehmeier, Buddy Kerr and Dave Koslo are the only 3 cards I need to complete my signed 1948 Bowman set!)

I’m wondering, too. I love what you did, even if it’s just a computer creation.

I took photos of my game used bats of these Reds sluggers and superimposed them over the photo which I took at the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum this year. A little more interesting than just photos of the game used bats.
The Frank Robinson bat is from the 1961 to 1963 period. When I purchased the bat it was already signed by Frank. I went to a card show here in Cincinnati a few years later and Frank was a signing guest. I waited until his signing period was done and asked his promoter if I could get a photo of Frank and I holding the bat. His promoter and Frank said no problem. It is a great photo, no charge, and a keepsake treasure as just a year later Frank passed. A great memory and all I had to do was ask. Frank could not have been nicer and really enjoyed seeing one of his gamers.

Wonderful. Are these bats part of a larger Reds bats collection? If so, what years does it cover?

[gm1967]

These game used bats are part of my vast Reds collection of gamers covering years from 1909 (Tom Downey), 1919 World Series Reds players, 20's through the 50's / 60's Reds, Big Red Machine 1975/1976 (all but 1976 Mike Lum) era, 1990 World Champion Reds, and my favorite 1999 Reds team.
