1949 Bowman PCL

[Archive]

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

Although these cards are not what we would call
vintage, these 36 cards certainly are noteworthy
due to their extreme scarcity.

I started putting this set together 20 years ago.
And, I do not recommend trying to "piecemeal" it
as I did. It took me 7 years to complete it. But,
I am still up-grading in order to replace a few
remaining hand-cut cards in the set.

A question for RICHARD LLOYD.....your set really
looks nice, are all 36 cards "factory-cut" ?

And, a question to any of the Forum members who
have complete (or partial) set of the 1949 Bowman
PCL cards.....what % are "factory cut" ?

I had one that I wish I had back. It was 100% factory cut, with the famous 1949 Bowman rough cut.

My type card. I bought it from Levi at 707 sports cards (he had a few more). My kind of set, real tough to complete. Richard Lloyds set is indeed impressive.

Thanks for the kind works on the 1949 PCL Bowman set...
YES, all cards are factory cut and 34 of the 36 cards would grade in EX-NM condition... The other 2 are VG..
The set kind of fell in my lap where I traded for it...
From what I know, most cards from this set are hand cut..
but this is a good question for Mark Macrae..
again, thanks for the kind words about the set...
I was luckey to get it..
Best
Dick
