1953 Bowman B&W

[tedzan]

Starting with the 1949 Bowman BB set, there was a team sequence pattern in their design, in which a given team would repeat every 16 cards.
For example, 1949 #1 is Bickford (Boston Braves)....#17 is Torgeson (Boston Braves), etc., etc. A similar pattern exists in the 1950, 1951, 1952
and 1954 BB sets. While this sequence was not strictly adhered to throughout in some of these sets, it is apparent that the cards were not just
arbitrarily assigned.

However, as Dave H. pointed out, the 1953 Color set does not appear to follow such a team sequence pattern. So, regarding the two Al Corwin
cards, the bio on their backs is identical (except that "December" is misspelled...."Recember" in the #126 card).
Furthermore, Corwin's Lifetime Stats. (in both cards) do not reflect his 1951 season Stats.

That's all folks....as I see it.


.......... #126 ................................................. # 149
