Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Bob:<br><br>The top group are 1948 Philadelphia Bulletin cut-outs which are very scarce and listed in the 2009 Standard Catalogue of BB Cards. Both A's &amp; Phillies were issued in 1948 and contain teh earliest pieces of Robin Roberts &amp; Richie Ashburn.

Posted By: <b>Bob Lemke</b><p>The bottom duo are also listed in the Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards, as 1954 Philadelkphia A's stickers. There are 10 checklisted, valued at $25 each in NM, though I suspect that's low.
