The lowers series of 1-3 were all issued as 36 cards (1-36, 37-72, 73-108) as were cards from the semi-hi series (181-21216, 217-252)

It's series 4 I'm unsure on. Was that a 36 card series or a 72 card series. It seems odd that that would be a different sized group than the others around it, but they did go to a larger series late in the year.

Hi Mark

I, too, collect and arrange the cards in my sets according to their series. Even the most challenging set....my T206.

Anyhow, as I noted in a prior post here, my recollection of the mid-series (cards #73 - 252) in the 1951 Bowman is "fuzzy". So, I am uncertain as to how these cards were issued.


However, I know for certain how the 1948, 1949, 1950, 1952, and 1953 Bowman cards with respect to series were issued. So, if you're interested, I can tell you about these sets.
