(LOT 1642)
1952 Bowman Small Complete Set with 3 PSA-Graded

SMALL COMPLETE SET!!! In 1952, the Bowman Gum Company produced a pair of football sets, both large and small, featuring brilliant and colorful depictions of gridiron greats from 71 years ago. Offered is a complete set of 1952 Bowman Small football cards, including three PSA-graded examples, presenting in VG-EX condition overall. Highlights of the 144-card set include #s: 1 Van Brocklin (GOOD), 2 Graham (VG+), 3 Walker (VG+), 10 Bednarik (EX), 16 Gifford RC (VG), 17 Tittle (VG), 23 Marchetti RC (EX), 29 McElhenny RC (EX), 30 Baugh (VG), 37 Hirsch (EX), 45 Van Buren (VG-EX), 46 Donovan RC (VG-EX), 48 Halas RC (EX), 78 Layne (VG), 83 Perry (VG-EX), 85 Robustelli RC (GOOD), 99 Stydahar RC (VG-EX), 105 Groza (EX), 127 Matson RC (VG-EX), 129 Christiansen RC (VG), 137 Waterfield (PSA 7), 140 Lary RC (GOOD), 142 Landry (PSA 4) and 144 Lansford (PSA 6). Though we assess this as VG-EX, the gathering displays much more visually appealing. 60-70% of the set appears to have come from penny packs and have wax residue on the reverse varying from non-existent to light moderate.
