1941 Play Ball Cards
The Play Ball Sets, issued by Gum Inc., 1939-1941, are sets filled with rookies, stars, semi-stars, and HOF's. This set being from 1941, has a total of 72 cards. The more pricey cards in the set include the Ted Williams ($2500), Joe DiMaggio ($1500–$10,000 [with high grade]), and the rookie Pee Wee Reese ($400–$500). Any Play Ball cards are extremely rare, and if highly graded the cards demand a premium. The 1941 Play Ball set also happens to be the only Play Ball set with color. These cards are truly pretty and historic and must be handled with great care.
