As you know, I collected the 1947 Bond Bread cards as a kid. They were first available in 1947.
Bond Bread continued to include them in their bread loafs into 1948.

It has not been established where these cards were printed; but, I've always felt that they were
produced by the Harry M. Stevens Co. (NYC). As this company produced all the Team and World
Series yearbooks from the 1920's to 1960's and also printed the Team individual photos available
at the various ballparks in 1946 to 1951. The pictures on the 1947 Bond Bread cards are identical
to the pictures in these publications.

Incidently, several years ago I saw a Page's Milk boxing card (but don't recall who).
