We have made the decision to break up an EXTRAORDINARY 1963 Topps set - the #4 Master Set on the PSA Set Registry. The 1963 set is a particularly difficult set to complete in high grade due to Topps' poor quality control in the era which resulted in considerable print defects. The large and colorful border at the bottom simultaneously lends a distinctive design element and a condition challenge, as they are extremely susceptible to chipping and wear. 

The example offered here is card #9, 1962 NL Strikeout Leaders, graded MINT 9. The card features some of the dominant pitchers of all time in Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson, and Don Drysdale, with Dick Farrell and Billy O'Dell rounding out the leaderboard from the previous year. This card is gorgeous, with bright, vivid colors, great centering, and sharp edges and corners. Its only flaw is some minimal snow in the colorful backgrounds of the front, otherwise this one might have gotten a 10.
