Item Description
2-1/16x3-1/8". The 1951 Bowman Baseball set consists of 324 cards. Each simple card front displayed a player's likeness, most of which were recognizable press photographs enhanced by painted color and embellished by the player's name caption. The set contains many future HOF'ers but it is the final 72 cards, the "High Numbers," that took the set to the proverbial "next level" thanks to the iconic rookie cards of young New York stars Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays. Edwin Donald "Duke" Snider, nicknamed "the Silver Fox" and "the Duke of Flatbush", was an American professional baseball player. Primarily a center fielder, he spent most of his Major League Baseball (MLB) career playing for the Brooklyn / Los Angeles Dodgers (1947-1962), later playing one season each for the New York Mets (1963) and San Francisco Giants (1964). Snider was named to the National League (NL) All-Star roster eight times and was the NL Most Valuable Player (MVP) runner-up in 1955. In his 16 out of 18 seasons with the Dodgers, he helped lead the Dodgers to six World Series, with victories in 1955 and 1959. He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1980.
