Lot # 1508: 1960 Topps Complete Set (572)

Presented is a complete set of 1960 Topps baseball, which was Topps' last horizontal issue, highlighted by the rookie cards of Hall of Famers Carl Yastrzemski and Willie McCovey. Many of the biggest stars in the set, including Mantle, Mays, and Aaron, appear in the set more than once due to the All-Star card series. Mantle has three cards in this set, as he also appears on the #160 "Rival All-Stars" card with Ken Boyer. Condition is 20% Ex to Ex-Mt (approximately two-thirds Ex and including a couple Nr/Mt), 64% Vg to Vg-Ex, and 16% lesser (including one trimmed). Keys: #1 Wynn (Vg), 10 Banks (Vg), 28 B. Robinson (Pr), 35 Ford (Gd), 50 Kaline (Fr), 73 Gibson (Vg), 136 Kaat RC (Vg-Ex), 148 Yastrzemski RC (Pr), 160 Mantle/Boyer (Fr), 200 Mays (Ex+), 210 Killebrew (Pr), 250 Musial (small pencil marks on front, otherwise Gd), 300 Aaron (Gd), 316 McCovey RC (0/100 T/B, otherwise Vg-Ex), 326 Clemente (Fr), 332 Yankees Team (marked with pen, otherwise Vg), 343 Koufax (Vg-Ex), 350 Mantle (Pr), 377 Maris (Pr), 420 Mathews (Gd+), 445 Spahn (ink marks on reverse, otherwise Vg), 475 Drysdale (Vg), 480 Berra (Pr-Fr), 490 F.
