Looks Like Carling Beer produced these sets of Cleveland Indians players from 1955 to at least 1961. The sets were 10 players each, and the cards are really big at around 8-1/2” x 12” or so. Rocky appears in these sets 4 times, 1957-60. He has a different pose in 1957, then the same pose for 1958-60. Here’s 3 x same pose cards 1958-60. I have not come across any 1957s in a long time, and don’t recall seeing the Rocky for sale. The Trading Card Database has the 1957 pic though so I know it’s out there!
