Beautiful ungraded 1957 Topps near-set needing just 8 cards for completion. The set was assembled by a long-time collector who really did put it together card-by-card seeking out the finest ungrade examples he could track down by buying at shows auctions and trading until he was just eight cards shy. While cards within the set are typical of 1950s Topps centering the eye appeal of the cards are exceptional a higher-grade set by the standards of longtime collectors unconcerned with razor sharp and dripping with gloss and snow white borders and other auction house catchphrases. What's here is simply an attractive mid-to-high grade near set. The set is missing eight cards: #18 Drysdale #20 Aaron #250 Mathews #285 Zimmer #2955 Collins #302 Koufax #312 Kubek and #328 B. Robinson. Of the remaining cards none are graded. A breakdown of the condition of the cards is as follows: 2% NM-MT 11% NM 40% EX/MT 36% EX and 11% VG/EX. A breakdown of the key cards included is as follows: #1 Williams (EX) #2 Berra (VG/EX) #10 Mays (VG/EX) #15 Roberts (EX) #25 Ford (EX) #30 Reese (EX/MT) #35 Frank Robinson (EX/MT) #38 Fox (NM) #55 Banks (EX/MT) #70 Ashburn (EX) #76 Clemente (EX) #85 Doby (NM) #90 Spahn (EX/MT) #95 Mantle (EX) #125 Kaline (EX/MT) #170 Snider (EX) #210 Campanella (EX/MT) #407 Mantle/Berra (EX/MT).
