This set break is of an original owner collection. The same owner as the near set break of 1948 Leaf a few auctions ago. Put together when he was a pre-teen he unfortunately decided to express himself artistically on many of the cards by adding color to hats, lips and undershirt sleeves on many of the cards. Some of them have actually been difficult to spot as he certainly seemed to do a nice job!

The Slaughter appears GOOD with heavy former wear and surface issues but his sleeves are colored. The Schoendienst appears VG with light to moderate corner wear and a heavier ding to the lower right as well as a light crease in the upper right but his eyes and lips are colored. This was a tough one to catch!
