1949 Remar Bread, Billy Martin ⭐ Pre-RC
Earlier today, I posted Billy Martin's famous 1952 Topps RC.
This 1949 Remar Bread is the first Martin card produced, to my knowledge.
In 1949, when Martin was a member of the Oakland Oaks, a AAA Pacific Coast League team with no affiliation, he was pictured on this unnumbered Remar Baking issue.  The company issued several sets in northern California from 1946-1950, but this Billy Martin Remar card is one of the most popular of all.

1952 Topps #175, Billy Martin RC ⭐
I love Billy Martin baseball cards.
Billy Martin was a fiery second baseman and later an equally intense manager, best known for his time with the New York Yankees. As a player, he was a key contributor to several Yankees championships in the 1950s, earning a reputation as a clutch postseason performer.
