Partial 1963 Topps set consigned from the collection of their original owners, two brothers who collected together in the late 1950s and early 1960s.  The cards are largely clean but handled, with mild corner and edge wear, along with the typical quality control issues plaguing Topps in this era (largely centering and fish-eyes in the 1963 issue).  A collection that includes many of the keys, this grouping is largely in the VG-EX to EX range, with a few better and some lesser. 

The group is missing the following cards for completion: #34, 38, 42, 50, 58, 61, 62, 89, 90, 91, 93, 108, 109, 110, 119, 135, 145, 150, 169, 173, 183, 186, 193, 200, 210, 252, 255, 258, 274, 284, 292, 296, 299, 300, 303, 304, 305, 310, 314, 316, 317, 318, 323, 328, 331, 332, 334, 346, 353, 356, 360, 363, 364, 367, 370, 371, 372, 373, 375, 376, 378, 379, 381, 383, 384, 385, 386, 390, 391, 392, 395, 396, 399, 400, 401, 404, 405, 407, 408, 411, 415, 417, 418, 420, 422, 426, 427, 429, 430, 431, 433, 435, 437, 440, 443, 476, 479, 487, 508, 510, 524, 527, 530, 531, 536, 537, 542, 543, 553, 560, 575. A breakdown of the key cards is as follows: #18 Buc Blasters (VG/EX), #25 Kaline (EX), #115 Yastrzemski (VG/EX), #120 Maris (EX), #125 Roberts (VG/EX), #138 Mays/Musial (EX), #228 Oliva (VG/EX), #242 Banks/Aaron (VG), #250 Musial (EX), #275 Mathews (EX/MT), #320 Spahn (EX), #340 Berra (VG), #345 Robinson (VG/EX), #380 Banks (EX/MT), #472 Brock (EX/MT), #490 McCovey (EX/MT_, #500 Killebrew (EX), #540 Clemente (VG/EX), #550 Snider (VG/EX).
