1960 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
1960's top rookie was Red Sox great Hall-of-Famer Carl Yastrzemski.
Another Hall-of-Famer was pitcher Jim Kaat. Kaat had an incredible
baseball career. Check him out on Wiki and you'll also see why he
gets my vote as the greatest golfer of all-time.
Another rookie card is Hall-of-Famer Willie McCovey with the Giants
and then Frank Howard who was a GIANT (of a man, he was huge).
Such a great crop that future .363 hitting Batting Champ Tommy Davis
barely makes this list.
As was normal back then, the 1960 Topps baseball card set was released
in series and ended up with the usual very scarce high #s. Making it
even more interesting, like their 1959 issue, Topps again put their
special All-Star subset, stuffed with Hall-of-Famers like Mantle &
Mays, in the very scarce high# series.
Two last things and I'll let you go.
Cards #375 thru #440 came in (2) variations. The more common
gray-backs and the somewhat scarcer white-backs. Cards #507
thru #572 were quite scarce high #s.

Baseball card collecting terms (part B)
Bazooka Bazooka Bubble Gum put baseball cards on the back of their
boxes from 1959 thru 1971. Complete boxes and panels can get extremely costly.
Most kids back then could not afford complete boxes of bubble gum at one
making Bazooka cards quite scarce. I actually don't recall ever obtaining
a Bazooka card directly from a box as a kid. Do you ???
Black Sox Scandal Name given to the the most famous scandal in
baseball history after the 1919 Chicago White Sox versus the Cincinatti Reds
World Series when 8 White Sox players were accused of throwing the series.
Details have remained somewhat unclear. The players were acquitted of
criminal charges but 8 players still received a lifetime ban from
professional baseball including the All-Time great "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.
Blank-Back a card in which nothing is printed on the back.
These cards are usually not in packs and are either "PROOF ISSUES" or
were removed from the factory in some way.
Blanket a term used for collectibles in the 1910's made of fabric .
Border is the part of the card that surrounds the photo or image.
Bowman was a card manufacturer in the 1940's and 1950's that was
bought out by Topps. In 1989 Topps started issuing cards using the Bowman
brand.
Break a term used to indicate the opening of a set, pack, box or case.
Break Value is the total book value of each card added up individually.
The break value of a set is usually way, way more than the value of the complete set.
