Set of 8 published as part of the "Colorama" insert in the Philadelphia Inquirer. The first group of four - Richie Ashburn HOF/Bill Shantz/Gran Hamner/Jim Finnigan appeared in the 7/25/1954 issue. Second group, featuring Robin Roberts HOF/Arnold Portacarreo/Curt Simmons/Smoky Burgess appeared in the 9/12/54 issue. This can be very difficult to find, especially uncut. Dimensions may lead to additional shipping charges.
Long-time friend of the company Carl Frysinger recently passed and made arrangements to consign his collection. With a collection that stretched from 1887 - 2022 and was as close to comprehensive as we've ever seen, he was one of the foremost Phillies collectors in the hobby. In his memory The Collector Connection will be donating 1% of our portion of the proceeds of the sale of his items to the Central PA Foodbank in Carl’s name.
