One of the great peripheral Topps baseball issues of the 1960s is presented here in truly outstanding condition, a complete set of the elegant 3 1/8-by-5 ¼-inch 1964 Giants in essentially Near-Mint or better condition. A single card – the key No. 60 short-print of Bill Skowron – has been slabbed in a PSA 7 holder, providing a nice glimpse into the wider condition range. The oversized issue has grown in prominence with the passage of each decade, bolstered by a great lineup of Hall of Famers and important stars of the era. The Hall of Fame lineup: Aaron, Aparicio, Bunning, Cepeda, Ford, Fox, Gibson, Kaline, Killebrew, Koufax, Mantle, Marichal, Mays, Oliva, Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson, Santo, Spahn, Torre, Billy Williams and Yastrzemski. For many of the HOFers, the photo selections yielded some of the nicest images of their careers. The offered lot is in extraordinary condition, with only three cards falling below to Ex-Mt: No. 18, No. 51 Mays (Ex-Mt-Plus) and No. 57
