Super-size card issued in 1984 by TCMA
This card is from an interesting and historically significant commemorative set by The Card Memorabilia Associates, Limited (TCMA). Commemorating many of the greatest baseball players of the 1950's, '60s and a bit later - it was printed in natural color and in slightly enlarged (3-13/16" by 5-3/4") postcard size.
This card is from what collectors frequently call a second series of TCMA's Great Players of the 1950's & 60's. Series 2 cards (issued 1984) are considerably scarcer than series 1 (1982).
