Default 1949 Leaf set - NOT 1948!!
Posted By: PASJD

Looks like the following HOFers have their "true" RCs in 48 Bowman rather than Leaf under the Lewis doctrine: Kiner, Mize, Feller, Rizzuto, Slaughter, Spahn, Musial. Which leaves (no pun intended) Paige, Robinson, Newhouser and Doby as the only RCs in the Leaf set. Which (I think) leaves Newhouser as the only exclusive RC in the set, as Paige, Robinson and Doby appear in 49 Bowman. EDITED TO ADD I forgot about the 41 Double Play set so Mize and Feller would not be rookies and didn't Rizzuto have a Double Play card as well?
