Mystery set needs identification.

[t.rooster]

Can anyone axcess the picture above, if not, can someone instruct me how to get a jpeg photo on my desktop to show up on this thread, I've struggled with it now for hours.
Hi. I've had this set since the early or mid-seventies. I would love someone to give this set an identity since there are no dates or company name attached to them, possibly for that reason they are official baseball Hall of Fame cards. A 33 card set circa 1970s. Hand colored photos on front w/ perforated edges (think postage stamp edges). Back is white w/black writing, stats on bottom, below that is the line "Elected to Hall of Fame" followed by a date, card# is inside a star in the left corner .
1 M.Ott, 2 G.A. Cleveland, 3 Babe Ruth, 4 H.Greenberg, 5 B.Terry, 6 C.Hubbell, 7 R.Hornsby, 8 Dizzy Dean, 9 J.DiMaggio, 10 C.Gehringer, 11 G.Hartnett, 12 M.Cochrane, 13 G.Sisler, 14 J.Cronin, 15 Pie Traynor, 16 L.Gehrig, 17 Lefty Grove, 18 Chief Bender, 19 F.Frisch, 20 A.Simmons, 21 Home Run Baker, 22 J.Foxx, 23. J.McGraw, 24 C.Mathewson, 25 Ty Cobb, 26 Dazzy Vance, 27 B.Dickey, 28 E.Collins, 29 W.Johnson, 30 Tris Speaker, 31 Nap LaJoie, 32 H.Wagner, 33 Cy Young.

the 1961 Golden Press set features 33 players all enshrined in the baseball hall of fame. The full color cards measure 2-1/2 by 3 1/2 and came in a booklet with perferations so they would be easily removed. Full books with cards intact would commant 50 percent over the set price in the checklist I am about to post. Cards #1-3 and 28-33 are slightly higher in price as they were located in the books front and back covers, making them more susceptible to scuffing and wear. Cards in a larger (2-3/4 by 3 5/8) apparently unperforated format are also known. Though their methos of distribution is unclear:
complete set (33) : 100.00 nm 50.00 ex 30.00 vg
complete set in book : 175 MN 85.00 EX 50 VG
