Additional Notes

Great condition card for 1960. I got this vintage card as a test to see the relative quality of older stuff you can get from sellers (commons). Corners/edges look very good and centering is only slightly off. Some discolouration on back but overall impressed with this one. It fascinates me how a 60 year old card can look so good. Dude also played pro basketball-what?

  1. Interesting the non complete stat list on back. After some reading I see that all cards were in the horizontal format from the ‘60 set. This is a good test card!

  2. There was also two different card stocks used in production. Cheaper grey or a white cream. Looks like this was the better wc version.
