1952 Bowman #191, Bob Friend ⭐ RC
Early Bowman cards are little pieces of cardboard art.
This RC of Bob Friend is amazing. He also has a RC in the 1952 Topps set that's stunning.
Bob Friend was a 4 x All-Star and key member of the 1960 World Champion Pirates.

1952 Topps #81, Vernon Law ⭐
1952 Bowman #71, Vernon Law ⭐
There have been no pitchers inducted in the the baseball HOF as Pittsburgh Pirates.
Vern Law was a good one.
After helping the Bucs win the 1960 World Series, he won the 1960 N.L. Cy Young award on this date, 65 years ago.
These are his second-year mainstream baseball cards, his RC is from the 1951 Bowman set. Sorry for the poor quality on the '52B, it's an old photo.
