Me too, Don! And that Dick "Night Train" Lane card is his pre-rookie by 4 years. How does Lane not get a Topps/Bowman card until 1957?

Sweet Night Train, and pose by Hirsch. Lane omission is pretty bad, how about Bill Willis; not at all in his career? Is there an oddball set out of Cleveland that includes Willis during his playing days?

Unless I'm missing something I know of no set from the 40s and 50s that includes Bill Willis. Hard to believe when he was All-Pro all eight seasons he played pro football.
