SOLD-1954 Red Heart
The Red Heart Dog Food set is a favorite of collectors. It numbers only 33 cards, but it is full of stars, Mickey Mantle and Stan Musial being the most desirable.
The set is made up of three series of eleven cards each, with red, blue and green backgrounds. The red backgrounds seem to be more difficult to obtain.
The cards are not particularly rare, and it has been reported that the cards were still available from the company in the early 1970's. However, the set is certainly condition sensitive.
Centering and registration problems, along with print dots in the backgrounds, plague these cards. I have completed the set in SGC 88 or better. It is currently the #1 1954 Red Heart set on the SGC Registry. |
