According to my 1952 Bowman card, Campanella had quite a year in '51

Ah, I think some of the Bowman press guys that year must have been amusing themselves by messing with kids' heads. Maybe they just wanted to see if anyone actually read those card backs.

Wow! 142 ribbies on 90 hits. Guessing he 1.000 with runners in scoring position haha.

Uh, Steve....did you photoshop that "142"? I don't see that on any other 1952 Bowman Arft cards with extra "1". I'm confused!

Oh, and nice card by the way. A NM-MT+ high number is pretty sweet!

It's not an item I own, but an image I found online years ago, so you might be correct.

Ah, ok. Thanks for confirming. You had me searching eBay yesterday for a new Hank Arft variation. . I’ll just assume it was a modified image (the “1” does look a little off).

While finding a new variation would have been cool, at least I don’t have to spend any more time trying to track down another version of old “Bow Wow”.
