A high-quality PSA NM-MT 8 from a superior 1960 Topps set, now offered as singles for this auction. Cards graded at this level display excellent overall images and detail quality, with minor factors holding them from the very highest scores. The slight tilt on this #498 is a modest issue for an otherwise bright, clean card that proves hard to improve on. The population report shows just four higher!

As the card cartoon confirms, Al Pilarcik pursued his college education in the offseason and followed his notable MLB career with one teaching physical education and fitness.
