These really weren't all that expensive to track down. My other theory is that since these cards are black and white, and don't really feature much star power, they're not popular with most collectors.<br /><br />I'm close to the 1940 Play Ball team set as well.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161762602291616465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-51392005916204981562015-08-18T09:20:24.162-04:002015-08-18T09:20:24.162-04:00Good post!

This must be a relatively mass-produced set (considering the fact that it is 76 years old!) since they don't seem to sell for all that much in VG or so condition--often just a few dollars each. In fact, the early-1970s TCMA set, "The 1930s", which pictures many of these guys as Phillies, seems to sell for about the same price per cards. Anyway, thanks for the post. I will have to make a concerted effort to complete my team set as well.Steve F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00753488569249068229noreply@blogger.com
