as i mentioned in last saturday's post featuring "two and two to" harvey kuenn, i've been buying some cards here and there for my 1955 bowman set build. i finally added the last piece to the next page in the binder, and now have a complete set through card number 40. here are cards 33-40:
it was the reese card that was the last one i needed for this sheet, and i didn't want to pilfer my dodger collection so i had to have some patience to find one that was right for my set and my wallet. it looks like bowman goofed with the checklist, putting wynn at 38 instead of reese's teammate bob darnell. this marks the first time in the set where teammates aren't back-to-back in the order.
seeing a vic wertz card from 1955 makes me think of the previous season where he hit the ball that willie mays caught in the 1954 world series. no mention of "the catch" on wertz's card, but he does give some good advice to the kids.
