The "Hit Parade of Champions" baseball set from 1951 by Berk Ross contains 72 cards that feature a variety of sports, including football, basketball, boxing, golf, figure skating, and the Olympics. Hall of Famers Phil Rizzuto (#1-3), Stan Musial (#2-1), Larry "Yogi" Berra (#2-4), Joe DiMaggio (#2-5), and Eddie (Whitey) Ford (#4-5) are significant contributions to this special set.
Below is a 1951 Berk Ross Basketball Checklist, images of 1951 Berk Ross advertisement and package, and 1951 Berk Ross Evaluation Secrets.
#1-11 Bob Cousy (Hall of Fame as player)
#1-12 Dick Schnittker
#2-11 Sherman White
#3-11 Paul Unruh
#4-11 Bill Sharman (Hall of Fame as player and coach)
Next Level: Single cards of each basketball player in the set are desirable. However, the un-detached doubles are more valuable, in my opinion.

1. Registration
Registration issues happen when the prints stamps are misaligned. Specifically, the photo of the player should be in sync with its background color. A 1951 Berk Ross card that has a registration issue has a blurry image with discolored skin, and you can see one or more colors bleeding onto an edge. See below.
