The LEAF's were my first color BB cards that I collected as a kid in 1949. These cards were NEVER issued in 1948 !
FYI......read my 8-page 1949 LEAF Baseball article in Issue #9 of the Old Cardboard magazine.

Hence the 'pretty sure', however I meant as far as the way the cards are treated in the category. Ie. how to call the card.
1989 topps cards could be made in 1990 as well but as far as what year you call the card a 1990 topps card
Afterall, it isnt unusual for a Leaf rookie with psa to say 1948..see the link

The point i was making was that 1949 bowmans Jackies are not called rookie cards (maybe they were made in 1950) as opposed to 1948 leaf jackies. Given that the leaf jackies would be 1949s, i would think the 1949 bowmans would be just as much as a rookie card?
So i mentioned that they were 1948 or 1949. I believe there was literature out there about whether to call these cards 1948 or 1949 is what made me say pretty sure..I used to wrong choice of words as 'made' but i do believe there is a debate whether to call the card a 1948 or 1949 which is important when there is a 1949 bowman out there
