Did Leaf Freeze Out Bowman in 1949?

Posted By: Dave Hornish

I have long wondered why there was no 1949 Bowman FB set. Looking at it semi-logically (half-assed, if you will) it seems Bowman had the FB market locked up until Topps bought them after the '55 season but did Leaf have it so locked up in '49 that Bowman decided to punt?
