During the fall, winter and early spring of 1984-85, the Smithsonian's
National Portrait Gallery displayed a sample of Charles Martin Conlon's
incredible work in its exhibition of many of his photographs reprinted
from the original glass negatives.
This 60 card set was
produced to coincide with this exhibit. The cards are 4 1/2" x 6 1/8" and have sepia toned photos on the
front. Backs are printed in black and white and include extensive
biographies of each player along with their major league totals.
Please download the 1981-1988 checklist to find the players included in this set.
Also, see card error at bottom of post.
ERRORS
The photos for Colby Jack Coombs and Fred Clarke are mismatched on
their cards with each other.
The postcard book was never
corrected, but the Baseball Immortals cards were - thus you can collect both the incorrect AND correct version of the card.
