One of the scarcest post war issues, Wilson Franks is plagued by staining (from the hot dog packages they were issued in) and poor centering.

8.1958 Bell Brand

This scarce regional set celebrated the Dodgers move to Los Angeles. 4 of the 10 cards were short printed, with Podres and Reese being a bit easier than the very tough Cimoli and Snider. This set features the last card of Roy Campanella as a player. The accident that rendered him paralyzed occurred just months before the Dodgers moved west, and he would never don a Los Angeles uniform.
This set is the finest known to exist, and the rare Cimoli sits alone as the finest example graded.
