Glen -

According to Baseball-Reference.com, Robert J. Wakefield did in fact play for the Bears in 1953. Judging by the info on the card's reverse I'd agree that it's probably from a 1953 Denver Bears Team Issue.

I do know Spic and Spans were also distributed at the dry cleaner's store in my home town, Fond du Lac, 60 miles north of Milwaukee in the mid-late 1950s.

Thanks Bob - I guess it was just me thinking of the stuff on the store shelves - Spic and Span Powder. Since I never saw the cards as a kid, just assumed that was the product link. Wonder if the dry cleaners ever heard from the national company on the name appropriation.

Those Signal color sets are among the best ever produced IMHO. Just a fantastic looking issue with superb color at a time when things were still b&w or very muted color for the most part.
