Default 1950 "Whiz Kids" team. The Phillies are the longest continuous franchise (est. 1883)

Hi Al

This is true....but, so is the Robin Roberts card in the Topps 1951 Current All Stars set as scarce as the Konstanty card.

But of course, Roberts is in the 1950 Philadelphia Inquirer team set.

Konstanty's performance in the 1950 season was outstanding. The Phillies would not have won the the NL Pennant without him.
So, I reiterate......it remains a mystery as to why Jim Konstanty was not featured in the 1950 Philadelphia Inquirer team set ? ?
