Here are 5 cards from my 1951 Topps Magic set. Showing some backs for those not familiar w/ this issue.

Those are really nice 51's! Tough set for condition and centering.

The T6 cards are really impressive in hand and my favorites!

Love Davidson's mustache pre Rollie Fingers. Piccolo looked like a bad ass and those 51's are in great shape.

Larry I don't recall where I got all three Browns. I do remember most dealers practically gave football cards away.

ks - I remember a particular card dealer back in SoCal, probably early 80's, who didn't deal with football, only baseball. He would, however, get quite a lot of football in collections he bought. When he accumulated enough he would just load it up into shoe boxes and sell them by the box full, regardless of year. There's no telling what treasures were in those boxes. Too bad I wasn't collecting football at that time.
