1964 Topps Giants

The real title of this set should be All Stars, but nobody calls 'em by that name. These large (3 1/8" x 5 1/4") cards feature stunning photography and snappy writeups on the reverse. And hey, they have photos on the backs! I've heard that's all the rage these days. Most probably released in the weeks prior to the 1964 All Star game, the set is very reasonably priced. At one point dealers were giving these cards away with other purchases, indicating way too many were produced by Topps. In fact, the Mantle card is often available for twenty bucks or so, even in nice shape. Complete sets are frequently seen and are definitely the way to go. What are you waiting for?
