Description

1951 Berk Ross (ACC designation: W-532-1) is a 72-card set released in four 18-card series. Each series contained 10 baseball players and eight athletes from other sports. The cards were distributed in two-card panels, and cards can be found either still in panel format or cut-up individually. Each individual card measures 2 1/16" X 2 1/2" -- about the size of a similar Bowman card.

The set is heavily skewed toward members of the Yankees and Phillies as those were the defending Pennant winners. The set is notable as it features the first mainstream trading cards of Whitey Ford, Bob Cousy, and Dick Button.
