Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist. . . 1953 Bowman Gum Baseball PHILADELPHIA ATHLETICS Complete Color AND Black & White Team Sets Since hitting neighborhood variety stores the 1953 Bowman baseball cards (both color and black & white sets) have ranked among the finest cards ever offered. The high quality photographs were uncluttered by even player name on the front of the cards. In addition, clean, information-filled backs made these little pasteboards irresistable! The passage of sixty-five years, however, has inserted the age/cost factor to the equation: Original 1953 Bowmans are now expensive in top condition. The solution: High quality reprints, of which these two complete team sets represent all cards issued for the team. A size bonus: Besides being high quality reprints, these cards are near-standard 2-1/2" by 3-1/2" size (at 2-5/16" by 3-1/2") so they fit easily in 9-pocket collector sheets. (Original '53 Bowmans are slightly larger at 2-1/2" by 3-3/4".) To repeat: The buyer will receive all cards for this team in both sets, as listed below. 1953 Complete Team Sets ~ All 17 cards (11) Color cards: #11 Bobby Shantz ~ #13 Gus Zernial ~ #31 Jimmy Dykes ~ #38 Harry Byrd ~ #82 Joe Astroth ~ #95 Wally Moses ~ #105 Eddie Joost ~ #107 Alex Kellner ~ #130 Cass Michaels ~ #150 Carl Scheib ~ #155 Allie Clark (6) Black & White cards: #6 Ray Murray ~ #8 Pete Suder ~ #20 Eddie Robinson ~ #43 Hal Bevan ~ #53 Morris Martin ~ #62 Keith Thomas Condition: Excellent-Plus/Near-Mint or better _______________________ Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low. Our primary objective is to sell cards and other things of interest to baseball hobbyists - not make money by overcharging on shipping. If you ever believe you are being overcharged on shipping, please email us and we will double-check the facts of the matter. Thank you! U.S. residents: We combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate.) All Other Countries: Email us first. Many listings indicate shipment to U.S. or U.S. & Canada only, but we actually ship worldwide. To receive your combined shipping, please wait for us to send you a combined invoice. The eBay checkout system usually displays an incorrect shipping charge. (It is normally too high.) Please do not pay for each item separately; if you pay separately, there is no shipping discount. We pack your order carefully - sandwiching cards between cardboard and utilizing boxes, bubble wrap, etc., as necessary - to ensure your items arrive in the condition you expect. Items are shipped the next business day. We ship 5 - usually 6 - days each week. Payment should be made within 7 days after invoice has been received.
