The GRAY (or SLATE) cards on this 3rd series sheet are normally either GREEN or ORANGE. This color printing mistake on this particular sheet occurred
occasionally, as a considerable number of these 17 mis-colored subjects have been found over the years. ![]() HOFers featured on this sheet...... . ![]() TED Z T206 Reference . |

The BOWMAN GUM company got us kids all excited in the Summer of 1949 when they issued these 36 cards with facsimile autographs on their backs.
In 1982, I traded a 1951 Bowman Mantle (Vg) rookie card for this sheet in a Sports Shop in Media, Pennsylvania. 4th series (cards # 109 -144) ![]() ..........................HOFer .........................................and, in my opinion a HOFer . . ![]() TED Z T206 Reference . |

As noted earlier, to the best of my knowledge, the 7th sheet of the 1949 Bowman set has yet to be discovered. I've arranged these 36 cards based on my research.
![]() .................................................. .................................................. ....................................^------------------^ There are 12 new Rookie cards introduced on this sheet. And, 4 of them are HOFers. ![]() ![]() Five retired players are included on this sheet. George McQuinn has a great story....in the twilight of his BB career of how he "sparked" the NY Yankees into winning the AL Pennant in 1947. That June, he was the AL batting leader (.392). His defensive play at 1st base was outstanding. ![]() HOFer's in the 12 re-printed variations ![]() ![]() For more detailed information regarding this enigmatic BB card set, check-out the 1949 Bowman article in the Spring 1983 issue of BASEBALL CARDS magazine authored by Ralph Triplette and Ted Zanidakis.
