Pre-World War II PLAY BALL... 1939 PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES Team* REPRINT Set Contains all 1939 team members for this team* as issued by Gum, Inc. Perfect for the team collector! Original Play Ball cards from which this reprint set are now more than 80 years old. America's involvement in World War II was less than 2 years hence and a penny purchased a fine card and good size slab of bubble gum in those days. Team sets - to say nothing of the full 182 original 1939 baseball gum cards - are fast becoming nearly unaffordable in high quality, excellent-plus/near-mint to mint condition like these. Offered here is a well-executed COMPLETE* TEAM SET of cards. It is clearly marked REPRINT 1988 and is affordable by nearly everyone! It was issued more than three decades ago (in 1988) by an unidentified reprinter - possibly the venerable Card Collector's Co., longtime supplier of sports hobby goods and accessories. Card size of these reprints is approximately 2-1/2" by 3-1/8" - same size as the Philadelphia gum company's originals. Cards this size fit in commonly available standard 9-pocket top-loading collector sheets for easy storage, safe viewing and full card coverage. A collecting Tip: Before buying any team reprint set, check the seller's listing carefully to learn what is (and is not) included. Sometimes partial sets, near-sets or superstars-only sets are offered. This TEAM SET features every contemporary member's card from this team that was included in the 1939 Gum, Inc. card set. It is comprised of players based on the team name indicated on the reverse side of the card - not necessarily as pictured. The reverse side, in some cases, contained team changes reflecting up-to-the-moment trades whereas the front may not.
