This is Pat Harder #29 from 1948 Bowman — Bowman's inaugural football issue and one of the foundational sets of the football card hobby — graded BVG 5 EXCELLENT by Beckett Vintage Grading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"18:1-18:681;653-1333\"\u003eHarder was one of the NFL's biggest stars when this card hit packs. The bruising Chicago Cardinals fullback out of Wisconsin had just powered the Cardinals' famed \"Dream Backfield\" to the 1947 NFL Championship — still the franchise's last title — and the card back celebrates his league-leading 102 points that season, the first of THREE consecutive NFL scoring titles (1947-49). A 1941 Big Ten MVP at Wisconsin and All-League fullback, Harder did it all: running, kicking, and punishing tacklers. Football trivia fans know him for a second act, too — after retiring, he became one of the NFL's most respected referees, working championship games including the legendary Ice Bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"20:1-20:18;1335-1352\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCard Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\" data-sourcepos=\"21:1-25:60;1353-1607\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"21:1-21:71;1353-1423\"\u003eSet: 1948 Bowman Football (Bowman's first football issue, 108 cards)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"22:1-22:47;1424-1470\"\u003eCard: #29, Marlin (Pat) Harder — Rookie Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"23:1-23:52;1471-1522\"\u003eTeam: Chicago Cardinals (Fullback, via Wisconsin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"24:1-24:25;1523-1547\"\u003eGrade: BVG 5 EXCELLENT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"25:1-25:60;1548-1607\"\u003eCert Number: 0005778358 (verifiable on Beckett's website)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"27:1-27:365;1609-1973\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professionally graded BVG 5 EXCELLENT by Beckett Vintage Grading and encapsulated in a tamper-evident holder — a strong, well-preserved mid-grade with a clean action pose.
