1951 Bowman Football Cards

There are 144 cards in the 1951 Bowman football card set; they were printed on 4 sheets of 36. My 1951 Bowman uncut sheet page shows the configuration of the sheets. 1951 Bowmans were the first football cards to feature the teams' logos on the fronts. See my blog article, B is for Bowman, for an overview of the 1948-1955 Bowman football card sets.

Rookie cards of Pro Football Hall of Famers in the 1951 Bowman set: Arnie Weinmeister, Emlen Tunnell, Tom Landry.
