Hi Dave and Al
Well, where do I start.......let's first go to the 1952 Topps "master" set. I am approaching 555 cards, which I consider comprises this complete set.
This one is easier, except for those elusive Graybacks (#131 - 190).
A 1949 Bowman "master" set is virtually impossible when you start considering the Slate background cards, Pink background cards, and other mis-
printed background cards.
For example, I now have the basic 324 cards (which includes the regular variations). And an additional 77 (or so) cards which include Slates, Pinks,
and other mis-printed background colors. I tell you all this, because I am no where near attaining a "master" Bowman set.
Somewhere in my archives I have figured out what number would make up a "master" set. I'd have to search for it, if you are interested.
Feel free to ask questions regarding this set, and I'll try to answer them.
Take care,
TED Z
