I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets. -

369. 1949 Silber’s Bakery Colts Y.A. Tittle SGC 40 Rookie (Only Known Graded) While most football historians associate Yelberton Abraham Y.A. Tittle with either the San Francisco 49ers or New York Giants, the Hall of Fame quarterback honed his craft with the 1948-1949 Baltimore Colts of the All-America Football Conference. The affable Louisiana State alum followed his Baltimore tenure with ten All-Pro/Pro-Bowl selections and a pair of NFL Most Valuable Players awards. Depicting the gunslinger at the dawn of his prolific career, the offered 1949 Silber’s Bakery Y.A. Tittle rookie card is the first such to have been offered for public sale and the only professionally graded example. Graded 40 VG 3 by SGC, Tittle was one of seventeen known players issued by the Southwest Baltimore bakery and distributed during the season as part of a promotional campaign at the eight Silber’s “Charm City” locations. According to a reliable Maryland-based hob- byist, only three Tittle examples are known, the offered sample and another, which is permanently nestled in a private collection. According to a book by Patterson entitled Football In Baltimore: History and Memorabilia (2000, Johns Hopkins University Press), a previous owner relates the following story, “I ran into Y.A. Tittle, one of my all-time heroes, several years ago, and showed him my Silber’s card of him. Y.A looked at it in amazement, saying he had no recollection whatsoever of the card. He thought, and all the price guides echo it, that his 1950 Bowman card was his rookie card. -
