These five PSA NM-MT 8 manager cards comes from a top-tier 1960 Topps set, now offered via lots and singles in this auction. Each presents bright color and clean borders consistent with its collector's high standards. While some print details and centering varies that fit this grade, their overall presentation remains excellent. Each notes the # higher on its population report.
#219 Fred Hutchinson (15 higher) managed the Reds during their competitive 1960s run and would capture the 1961 NL pennant.
#224 Paul Richards (15 higher) helped turn around a moribund Baltimore team from the second division. They would finish second to New York in 1960.
#216 Joe Gordon (HOF as player, 31 higher) led Cleveland to a second place finish in 1959. He transitioned to managing after a playing career that included multiple World Series championships with the Yankees.
#214 Jimmie Dykes (17 higher) started with Detroit in 1960, but was Cleveland by its end, as subpar first halves for each manager led to team shuffling, with Dykes taking over Gordon's job for the Tigers.
#213 Chuck Dressen (16 higher) managed Milwaukee for two years following a prominent career in Brooklyn, but failed to find the same pennant-winning success.
