Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist. . . A Promotional Card for 2nd Annual Philadelphia Baseball Card Show, Oct. 1-2, 1976 Card #34 - Charlie "King Kong" Keller, New York Yankees from the 1947 BOWMAN BASEBALL CARD SET aka "The Set That Never Was" ~ scarce 1976 collector-issued set by HRT/RES An interesting and very collectible set patterned after the original 1948 Bowman baseball card series is this "1947" edition produced by Ted Taylor (HRT) and Robert Schmierer (RES) to promote their Philadelphia Area sports memorabilia and baseball card shows in 1976-1977. Made in the same size and style, and from similar clay-based cardboard as the original Philadelphia gum company's product (1948 Bowman baseball), the Taylor/Schmierer edition was billed as The Set That Never Was. Each card is nicely executed with indepth biography written as if the card had just been issued - in 1947. Collectors will want to add a few favorites to their holdings.

We also offer UNLIMITED singles (up to and including 8X10 inches in size) shipped via Ground Advantage for the one card rate.
