Another PSA MINT 9 from an expert-built 1960 Topps set that ranks as one of the best ever assembled. Few cards from this era survive in top condition, making each high-grade example a select opportunity. This #408 shows clean, square borders, excellent centering, and perfect photo registration. The population shows just two higher.
Lifetime Dodger and two-time World Series champion Carl Furillo retired his powerful bat and strong throwing arm following the 1960 season, due in part to a leg injury that led to a court case and somewhat acrimonious split with the franchise. Were he to play in the modern era, he might follow the free agent path used by stars like Dave Parker and Andre Dawson, with similar long-term benefits for himself and several teams.
