I've yet to see a '48 (or '49 for that matter) empty wax box or unopened pack in over a decade of searching.

Your sheet is the same as mine....it is a modified 1st series sheet which includes cards #37 - 48 (that replaced cards #7, 8, 13, 16, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 30, 34).

Thanks, Ted Z! I started collecting the 48'
baseball set in the late 1980's,
when I acquired some older cards
from school classmates, 2 brothers
whose Grandpa had collected them.
I acquired some more of the set at card
shows in Cooperstown NY. I have always
enjoyed this small, under appreciated set!
I am stoked to see your collection and read your info.
Have you ever thought of organizing all of your previous
articles and putting them together all in one place, a website
or a book? Your love of the hobby and your vast knowledge
and willingness to share with us is Greatly Appreciated.
Thanks again.....JT

Hi JT

I really appreciate your compliments.

I love sharing my expertise of things pertaining to this hobby. I have been collecting all types of sports cards for 46 years, now. And,
if you have an inquisitive mind you can learn a lot in the course of 46 years.

So, why not share it with everyone while you can.....after all, you cannot take this knowledge with you when you leave this existence.

Regarding me writing a book...... HA !
I have already posted most I know about sportscards (1887-1984) on this forum these past 11 years. One can look it up by using the
SEARCH function on Net54.

Take care.

Ted-- how often do you use the search function ? It would take 11 years to find all your wisdom herein

Every day....and some days, numerous times.

It's one of the indispensable features of this forum.

I love print errors and there is no shortage from early Bowman. This one has a #48 Koslo front and back. The back also has two stamps from #100 Miklich FB and one #102 Angsman FB. Notice how all three are located bottom row, third from the right. Helps you visualize what the guys have presented for sheet arrangement.
