This is a collector-grade example of an important vintage Topps issue, the classic 1959 set with the vivid color backgrounds. Offered here is a consistent Very Good to Excellent example, with some above and below and a nice, consistent presentation. Perhaps four dozen or so cards rise to the level of Ex-Mt; about 250 cards have the kind of centering that might prompt an upgrade, though not all of those would be severe enough to dictate and off-center designation. There are three third-party slabbed and graded specimens of the No. 10 Mickey Mantle, the No. 514 Gibson (SGC 50) and the No. 563 Willie Mays All-Star (BGS 4). Seven cards – Vernon, Shaw, Kaline, Mueller, Trucks (extra card), Moss and Schoendienst – are autographed.
