=Description=

1941 Play Ball is a 72-card set measuring approximately 2 1/2" by 3 1/8". Many of the cards in the 1941 Play Ball series are simply color versions of pictures appearing in the 1940 set. This was the third, and final, year Gum, Inc. released their Play Ball set, and 1941 was the only one in color.  

It is believed that the set was released in two series of 48 and 24 cards.  It is also believed that those final 24 cards were not issued until 1942.  The first 48 cards were also reissued in 1942, but without a copyright date. 

The set is anchored by cards of Joe DiMaggio, Hank Greenberg, and Ted Williams, as well as Bill Dickey, Lefty Gomez, Carl Hubbell, Chuck Klein and Mel Ott, with the rookie card of Pee Wee Reese. The set is also noted for the single, simultaneous appearance of all three DiMaggio brothers in the same trading card production as Dom and Vince joined brother Joe.
