Default 1952 Colorado Springs Sky Sox Team Set

My lovely wife gifted me the following set a number of years ago for Christmas. Thing is, I have not been able to find much about this set. I know that it is a 19 card set, I have all 19 and that apparently the Connie Johnson card is somewhat harder to find than the other 18.

I found out that this is mentioned in one of the Krauss publications but that is about it. I know that minor league sets do not get much focus here but can anyone possibly shed a bit more light on this if possible?

Sam Hairston is in the Sky Sox ring of fame here in Colo Spgs. and was a coach here for a while also. But long before I moved here.

It is a cool set and I have seen some advertised on eBay but not much else I have been able to find. If anyone may have the Krauss pub data and can post it here, I would certainly appreciate it.

Thanks!

B. T.
