A 48 card set issued in black and white,  the two cards above are the only Phillies included in the set. Both are short printed which leads to the scarcity of finding them.

Good luck finishing this set. With the rookie cards of Roberts and Ashburn, one will shell out quite a few dollars even in below grade cards. The full set of 240 cards are an intermediate of color and black and white, kind of tinted color. I really like this set. Still have not finished it myself. Of note, the Waitkus card #142 is shown with him in a Cubs uniform but Phillies team on the back and Dutch Leonard is shown in a Phils uniform #115 and Cubs on the back. This is not an error. I added Leonard to my collection as it is a nice card. The high numbers in the set are higher in price than the lower numbers-- 200 and above.
