Examples from each set. I always especially liked the 1941 Play Ball cards that feature shadows, like the Ted Williams, as well as the McQuinn shown...just adds a little more depth and interest.

One of the drawbacks about the 1939 set is the fact that no names were printed on the front, and one of the results of this is that frequently they are seen with some kid writing the player's name on the front, or sometimes even another player's name. Hey, with no name on front it could be anyone you wanted it to be!
