Man was the 1948-1949 Leaf baseball set PACKED !!! The set was small in numbers and size with only (98) 2-3/8" by 2-7/8" cards. With only 98 cards, the set was "skip-numbered" with card numbers from 1 thru 168. Likely an attempt to force collectors to keep buying packs looking for their missing cards. (49) cards are considered "Short Prints" and there is one variation card #136: Full Sleeve/Short Sleeve (error)

ABOUT STAN MUSIAL

Brooks Robinson holds the major league record for games played at 3rd base (2,870).

He also holds records for Double-Plays turned (618), Putouts (2,697) and Assists (6,205).

Robinson played in 18 All-Star Games, only Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Stan Musial have played more.

He was AL MVP, All-Star Game MVP and World Series MVP. Frank Robinson is only other player ever to win all 3.

His nicknames "Mr. Hoover" and "the Human Vacuum Cleaner" were well-esrned.

Brooks is generally considered to be the greatest defensive third baseman ever.

Stan Musial was not only the greatest player in Cardinals history but one of the best ever. Stan "The Man" played all of his 22-year career in St. Louis and was selected to 24 All-Star games and is the Cardinals career leader in almost every batting category.

Baseball card collecting terms (part D-F)

Die-Cut A special card that differs from a basic card by "Die-Cutting", cutting away portions of the card to create a special design. Most are serially numbered & limited.

Error Card Baseball card history is filled with error cards, many of them very interesting. Hank Aaron is on 2 of my favorite error cards. Aaron's 1956 Topps card action photo shows Aaron sliding home but it is actually Willie Mays not Aaron. Topps again goofed on Aaron's 1957 "reversed negative" card showing Aaron batting left-handed.

"Error Cards" are usually found early in print runs and often corrected. When this correction happens a VARIATION is created. Some variations are extremely interesting and very expensive while others are totally boring and you wonder why they were even made.

Extended Set Also frequently called Update Set or Traded Set.
They are sets issued after the original release to update the regular set with new and traded players.

Facsimile Autograph is an autograph printed on a card to show what the player's actual signature looks like. They are not "real" autographs.

Factory Set are complete sets usually in special boxes produced by the manufacturer. "Hand-Collated Sets" are sets collectors have put together card by card from packs.
