I guess that’s why I like looking at others cards😁.

It is easier with a phone. This is what I do. When you take a pic with your phone take a pic of an area about the size of a piece of regular printer paper. Then crop it down to just the card. This keeps the file from being to big to post. Then use the little paper clip thingy to attach your picture to he post. Hope this helps.:)

I don't have any 53s to contribute but yes please do it with them as they are beautiful cards.

#385 Herman Franks

According to Joshua Prager in his book The Echoing Green, Franks played a critical role in Bobby Thomson's famous "Shot Heard Round The World". Franks was stationed in the Giants' center-field clubhouse at the Polo Grounds, stealing the opposing catcher's signs through a telescope and relaying them through second-string catcher Sal Yvars to the Giants' coaches and hitters. When asked where he was when Thomson hit his home run, Franks said that he was "doing something for Durocher" at the time. (from Wikipedia)

Bob, before this thread ends I want to tell you that your cards are amazing, I have never seen 52T's as bright and well-focused as yours. I don't know how you did it, but your set is impressive.

Edited so Dale's Chipman can be with his friends. :)

Sure wish I could play tomorrow, but I will enjoy seeing others Wilhelm cards just the same.

I love the huge borders on these high numbers. I appreciate you guys keeping this going!

Don’t half the guys in this set look like they could have qualified for a senior discount back in 1952 ?
