This set was issued in 1989 with no updates. The set commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Baseball Hall of Fame and the 10th anniversary of Perez-Steele Galleries. The issue was limited to 10,000 sets and portrayed 44 living (at the time) Hall of Famers and a checklist. The art is painted after the style of the W.S. Kimball set of 1888. The box of cards is housed in a larger box along with an album that was designed like the Allen & Ginter "Album of Worlds Champions" of 1887. Each leaf of the album contained reduced versions of the cards that were set on decoratively illustrated backgrounds.
