December 5, 2013: Sports & Americana Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/5/2013
This lot of 1960 Topps Baseball presents in mostly Ex to Ex-Mt condition, with a perhaps four dozen or so falling to largely Good to Very Good and listed below. The lineup includes some duplication, with many rookies, semi-stars and teams, plus a couple of high numbers. The lot is perfect for a roughly 1/4 start on putting together an Ex to Ex-Mt 1960 set or as an upgrade to an existing Vg to Ex set. This is a very nice group, highlighted by a 50-card stretch mostly in the second and third series that is the cream of the crop, displaying the “vending bend” and extra-clean gray card backs that suggests the cards came from a vendor box. Within that 2nd Series section are nearly two dozen of the “orange” rookie cards, mostly devoid of any of the customary “snow” or printing dots that frequently turn up in this particular subset. The breakdown, Ex to Ex-Mt unless otherwise noted: 8 (Good), 15, 17 (Good), 23, 25, 30, 31(Good), 38(2), 40 (2, one is VG), 45, 46, 48 (Good), 53 (Good), 60 (2, one is Good), 66 (2), 68, 69 (2), 70 (2, one is VG), 74, 78, 80, 85 (Good), 86, 89, 90 (Good), 91(Good), 97, 103(Good), 107 (VG), 119, 120, 121, 123, 124, 125 (2), 127, 128, 129, 134, 135 (Good), 137, 139, 140 (2), 143 (2), 144 (VG), 146, 147, 149 (2, one is VG), 151 (VG), 152, 154, 156(Good), 158, 162, 165, 167 (2, both are VG), 168, 171 (2), 172, 180, 181 (3, one is Good, another is VG), 184, 185 (2), 187, 189, 192 (VG), 193 (2), 196, 199 (VG), 203 (2), 206, 207 (2), 211 (3), 221, 228 (Good), 229, 232 (2), 233 (2), 234, 235, 237 (2), 238 (2, one is VG), 239, 241, 242(Good), 246, 249, 252, 254 (VG), 256, 257 (2, one is Good), 261, 262 (Good), 266, 267 (5, two are VG), 268, 269 (4, one is VG), 271, 272, 273(Good), 274, 275 (2), 277, 278 (VG), 280 (2), 281 (2), 282(Good), 283, 284, 285 (2, one is VG), 289(Good), 290(Good), 293, 294(Good), 297, 299, 301, 302 (Poor), 304, 308(Good), 309, 311 (VG), 313, 318, 327 (2), 331, 338, 342, 351, 357, 359 (VG), 363, 368, 383, 392, 454, 457, 472 (VG), 476(VG), 478 (VG), 486(Good), 511, 533 and 545.
