Love my multi signed cards, especially the 3x5 card signed by Butkus, Blanda, Payton and Grange.

I managed to put together complete Bowman sets in 1950, '51 & '52 Large when I was a kid, so I picked favorites from all 3!
I'll include my '51 Topps Magic also.

Love the vintage Bowmans. What's the story behind Topps magic? A college set because they weren't allowed to produce pro football like the 55 AA? I don't hear much about Topps Magic. Thanks.

The 1948 Topps "Magic Photos", 1950 Topps Felt Backs, 1951 Topps Magic, and 1955 Topps AA are all of college players. I believe this is because Bowman had most NFL players under an exclusive marketing agreement and Topps did not work to change this for football like they did for baseball during the early 50s.

It all got resolved when Topps purchased Bowman in 1956.

Thanks Jeff. Were the sets other than 55 AA current players while 55 AA was historic?

Default Hi John--
The 1951 Topps Magic issue is made up of 75 then-current college players only. It is a very condition sensitive set because of poor quality control in cutting & many blurred images.

The reverse had a question w/ a silver scratch-off answer section that could easily take part of the card surface w/ it!

Yes, all of current players. These sets don't get a lot of love because they are Ugly but there are definitely some stars in them.

Here are some of the 1950 Felt Back stars.
