1949 LEAF BB set re-visited....show us your cards

[tedzan]

While the 1st series of 49 cards of this 1949 LEAF BB set were very available in most states throughout the country in the early Spring of 1949,
the 2nd series (49 cards) were issued in the Summer of 1949 and were regionally limited to Eastern Massachusetts, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio.
These 2nd series cards, as most of you know who collect this set, are extremely tough to find. And, are referred to as Short-Prints.
In the following posts all 49 of these short-prints will be displayed.
