1949 Lummis Ashburn Phillies
Phil:
Here is your Ashburn 1949 Lummis.
But...... is it his true Rookie card?? See below.
The first after the Lummis is in the SCD Vintage Standard Catalog. 1948 Philadelphia Bulletin Stand Ups. Ashburn was issued 8/1/1948. Certainly well before the 49 Lummis.
The other is a ticket to Ashburn day in his hometwon of Tilden Neb. found under a floor board when a house in Tilden was being demolished a few years back!!
Regards,
Fred
