The only thing more noteworthy than the roster of this sparkling grouping of 1964 Topps Giants is the condition, a blazing and consistent Near-Mint to Mint, with the key Hall of Famers in the same pristine condition as the overall group. These 3 1/8-by-5 ¼-inch beauties could be used to upgrade any number of high-grade 1964 Topps Giants sets, or simply create a striking, unimprovable near-set that would rank among the best of them. Here’s the breakdown, with essentially every card listed as Near-Mint to Mint:1 (2), 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 Ford (2), 8, 9, 12 Kaline, 13 Fox, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 (2), 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 Mantle, 26 Torre, 27, 29 Frank Robinson, 30, 31 Spahn, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 (2), 37 Marichal, 38 Killebrew, 39 Aparicio, 40 (2), 41 Gibson (2), 43, 44, 46, 48 Yastrzemski, 49 Aaron, 50 Brooks Robinson, 52 Billy Williams, 53, 55 Cepeda, 56, 57, 58 Santo, and 59.
