Vintage NFL Master Copy Program Sets?

[Fballguy]

Picked these up a few years ago. Had never seen before or since. Would love to try and complete the set...though that seems like a daunting task. Each volume contains every L.A. Rams home program from that year, including the preseason. I have 1959, 1961 and 1964. Not sure how many years these were produced or how you got them but I'm guessing it's a safe bet that 1960, 1962 and 1963 are out there somewhere. Each volume has a name embossed on the front. 1959 and 1964 have the name J.R. Osherenko. The 1961 edition has the name Tom Arthur on it. Haven't been able to learn anything about those names. Guessing that these were gifts to sponsors or employees? Or possibly available via mail-order?

Lots of cool stories and ads in these. Particularly cool to learn an entire set of NFL bobble heads would've set you back only 12 dollars in 1961. Why the hell didn't my father fill the garage?

Check that...An entire set would set you back $12.25. Can't forget or beat that $0.25 postage.

Interesting. I hope you can locate more to round out the collection. Perhaps they were given to advertisers that signed on for the full year?

Love it!

For a full set, they may have had to do $3 postage....12 X .25.

Thanks Rob...No other site that I'm aware of comes close to the focus on vintage and knowledge base of the subscribers, that we have here. Would love to see a football specific section. I know football is lumped in the "all other" category in the B/S/T card section. I think it deserves it's own space.
