Many collectors consider "the pennant set" a peak design for the 1960s, in spite of its challenging stars and high numbers. A discerning mid-grade collector consigned their complete set for this auction, loaded with many graded stars, and the remainder in sharp raw shape. Superb way to obtain one of Topps best vintage efforts en toto, with no waiting. 

A technical breakdown of the set would be as follows: 12% EX with a few nicer, 25% VG/EX, 31% VG, 23% GOOD, 8% F/P. A breakdown of the key cards, including 13 graded cards, is as follows: #15 Roberts (VG/EX), #16 Morgan (PSA VG-EX 4), #20 Bunning (VG), #50 Marichal (EX), #65 Mazeroski (PF), #110 Santo (VG), #120 F. Robinson (VG/EX), #160 Clemente (PSA EX+ 5.5), #170 Aaron (SGC VG/EX+ 4.5), #176 McCovey (GOOD), #187 Stengel (POOR), #207 Rose (PSA EX 5), #220 Williame (EX), #250 Mays (PSA EX 5), #260 Drysdale (VG/EX), #300 Koufax (VG), #320 Gibson (GOOD), #330 Ford (VG/EX), #350 Mantle (PSA EX 5), #360 Cepeda (VG), #377 Stargell (POOR), #400 Killebrew (FAIR), #460 Allen (VG), #470 Berra (PSA VG-EX 4), #477 Carlton (PSA VG-EX 4), #500 Mathews (VG/EX), #510 Banks (PSA NM 7), #526 Hunter (PSA EX 5), #540 Brock (POOR), #573 Lonborg (PSA EX 5), #581 Perez (PSA EX 5). In the case of this set, the key cards fare better than the commons, condition-wise, making upgrading this to a nice, midgrade set a less costly endeavor. 598 cards total.
