T51 Murad College Series is 150 cards in the standard set (225 for Master), with 8 baseball player subjects: Fordham, Penn State, Kentucky, Ohio State, Haverford, Antioch, Bethany, and Kentucky Wesleyan. I paid $900 for a mid to high grade set of 150 from Kit Young just a couple years ago; a few of the cards graded PSA 8, with a number of 7s and a bunch of 6s and 6.5s.
Now it doesn't specify any specific player names, but college collectors love them for the lithography and gold foil border.
Still my favorite Pre-War set. Aside from the 8 baseball cards, there are a handful of basketball scenes, a handful of football scenes/players, plenty of track/field athletes, and cards from hockey, tennis, swimming, even biathlon.

Cards in Fair condition can be bought for a couple of bucks, but high grade cards can fetch hundreds. Not sure any card has topped $1,000 by itself yet.
