A Look at the Evolution of Early Bowman Baseball Cards

June 18, 2019 By Anson Whaley

After World War II, the Bowman Gum Company quickly became a viable competitor to Topps. Both companies produced sets early in the postwar era but Bowman would eventually get swallowed up by its rival. Topps, of course, ceased printing cards under the Bowman label after 1955 until reviving the brand back in 1989. But while Bowman's first run lasted only from 1948 through … [Read more...] about A Look at the Evolution of Early Bowman Baseball Cards

“The Boy Manager”: 5 Fun Cards Of Lou Boudreau

July 17, 2017 By Bob D'Angelo

Lou Boudreau 1948 Leaf

The Boy Manager would have been 100 on Monday. Lou Boudreau, who managed the Cleveland Indians to their last World Series title in 1948, was born July 17, 1917, in Harvey, Illinois. A Hall of Fame shortstop, he became the youngest manager in baseball history when he was hired for the 1942 season at the age of 24. Critics derided him as the “boy wonder” and the “boy manager,” … [Read more...] about “The Boy Manager”: 5 Fun Cards Of Lou Boudreau

5 Great Cards of Baseball Pioneer Larry Doby

July 4, 2017 By Rich Mueller

Larry Doby 1952 Topps

He was the first player to go directly from the Negro Leagues to Major League Baseball. His struggles as the first black player in the American League are sometimes overlooked by the focus on Jackie Robinson but they were every bit as real.  The vast majority of his Cleveland teammates were chilly at best in those early days.  On the field, he struggled too, in the … [Read more...] about 5 Great Cards of Baseball Pioneer Larry Doby

Tommy Brown’s Historic Home Run Still Stands

August 19, 2015 By Bob D'Angelo

Tommy Brown 1949 Bowman

It’s a story my dad has told me many times. He was a Dodgers fan growing up in Brooklyn during the 1940s, and he used to say when a member of the home team homered at Ebbets Field, radio broadcaster Red Barber would call it “another Oldie Goldie.” That was in deference to Old Gold cigarettes, one of the Dodgers’ sponsors. After the player circled the bases, Barber would roll … [Read more...] about Tommy Brown’s Historic Home Run Still Stands

Baseball Cards of the 10 Forgotten 1945 All-Stars

July 3, 2015 By Graham Womack

Ken O'Dea

Much has been made recently of several Kansas City Royals players questionably leading All Star voting at their positions. As many as seven Royals could start in the July 14 game with talk of revising fan voting. All the same, this wouldn't mark the first time deserving players have missed their All Star chance. Seventy years ago, in the waning days of World War II, baseball … [Read more...] about Baseball Cards of the 10 Forgotten 1945 All-Stars

Robinson Rookie Cards Still Hobby Gold

October 22, 2014 By Rich Mueller

Jackie Robinson rookie card

On October 23, 1945, baseball changed forever.  World War II had ended just months earlier and a new era was coming.  Brooklyn Dodgers General Manager Branch Rickey believed it was time to integrate baseball. The Kansas City Monarchs shortstop he’d been watching was the man he’d been looking for.  Just three years later, kids were about to find an … [Read more...] about Robinson Rookie Cards Still Hobby Gold
