This set has been known in the hobby for years, but has never been catalogued, as there is no printed information on the cards! They are true, blank backed pure cards. Although numerous Japan Hall of Fame members are depicted in this set, there are quite a few unidentified players on cards, hence the unknown checklist. Players such as Victor Starffin (Russia), Bozo Wakabayashi (Hawaii), Tetsuharu Kawakami, Hiroshi Oshita, Shigeru Chiba and Noboru Aota are part of the set, generally with multiple poses. The colorized photo images are a cut above most cards of the era, both in terms of quality and beauty.

Size: Each card is approximately 1 3/4" x 2 3/4".

Condition: Ex/Mt to Nm/Mt. Average--Near Mint.
