From his remarkable combination of speed and power at the plate to his iconic defense in center field, Willie Mays was one of the best all-around players in Major League Baseball history.

1951 Bowman is proud to be the issuer of both Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle's ROOKIE CARD !!! Many think that their rookie cards were 1952 Topps, but they would be wrong.

Not only did Willie Mays appear on numerous vintage cards of his own, he also shared an interesting 1956 Topps card with Hank Aaron. 1956 Topps cards showed a large player photo along with a smaller action photo. On Aaron's card, the action photo showed a player sliding into home. Turns out that player wasn't Hank Aaron but was actually Willie Mays !!! Great for me as I was and am a huge Willie Mays fan.

Last little tidbit:
Really ... how good was Willie Mays ?
Well this is what his manager Hall-of-Famer Leo Durocher had to say.
"What can I say about Willie Mays after I say he's the greatest player any of us has ever seen. If he could cook, I'd marry him!"

Baseball card collecting terms (part B)

Bazooka Bazooka Bubble Gum put baseball cards on the back of their boxes from 1959 thru 1971. Complete boxes and panels can get extremely costly. Most kids back then could not afford complete boxes of bubble gum at one making Bazooka cards quite scarce. I actually don't recall ever obtaining a Bazooka card directly from a box as a kid. Do you ???

Black Sox Scandal Name given to the the most famous scandal in baseball history after the 1919 Chicago White Sox versus the Cincinatti Reds World Series when 8 White Sox players were accused of throwing the series. Details have remained somewhat unclear. The players were acquitted of criminal charges but 8 players still received a lifetime ban from professional baseball including the All-Time great "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.

Blank-Back a card in which nothing is printed on the back. These cards are usually not in packs and are either "PROOF ISSUES" or were removed from the factory in some way.

Border is the part of the card that surrounds the photo or image.

Bowman was a card manufacturer in the 1940's and 1950's that was bought out by Topps. In 1989 Topps started issuing cards using the Bowman brand.
