These are some of the 1959 Topps cards I recently acquired.
The Berra has thumbtack holes, which I kind of like seeing. It's nice to imagine the prior owner as a kid having this tacked up on the wall in his bedroom.
I made up a 9-pocket page of some of the different color combinations.
A sheet of these is real pretty, isn't it?
This design has grown on me over the years. There are a lot of head shots, which I usually do not like, but the head shots are not so in-your-face due to the color framing and the larger-font player name on the card.
Spahn wins it.
ReplyDeleteGood depth, though, with Berra, Killebrew, Snider, and Martin.
I do like the design, other than the fake auto.
I like the George Anderson card - picked up a copy a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteSome power house players there, nice going.
