Description: Offered for your consideration is... Card #28 - MELVIN THOMAS OTT, New York Giants, from the 1942 Play Ball set issued in 1976 by HRT/RES Several years before TCMA (The Card Memorabilia Associates, Ltd.) issued eight series in an effort to continue Gum, Incorporated's popular Play Ball series of 1939 to 1941, two Philadelphia area collectors - Ted Taylor (HRT) and Bob Schmierer (RES) combined to issue an excellent series which they called, "1942 Play Ball - U.S.A." The cards were well executed, offering collectors team and player favorites of the era. The biographical and statistical data was presented as if the 1941 season had just ended and the collector was looking toward the 1942 season. This card is NOT a reprint but an original card produced in 1976 looking back to the spring, summer and fall of nineteen forty-two.
