There has been so much written about this set that I will not go into the specifics. This set has the grandaddy of all vintage basketball cards: The George Mikan rookie card. This set also has some neat nonplayer cards, and the color photos are of a pretty good quality. They are roughly the same size as thier 1948 baseball cousins.
