1963 Fleer Baseball Cards
|
The 1963 Fleer baseball card set planned to be larger but Topps
lawsuit cut it short leaving just 66 cards plus a checklist. 
But what 66 cards !!! 1963 Fleer cards are attractive & packed:
also Roberto Clemente, Sandy Koufax ... plus 2 very scare Short Prints. 
Maury Wills' Rookie card is an interesting story.
In the majors since 1959, quickly became a superstar.
So why 1963 for his rookie ??? Well, back in 1959 Topps deemed
Wills NOT WORTHY enough to be on their baseball cards. 
Wills was upset at the slight from Topps. After his 1962 MVP, Topps came
a knocking but he said "NO !". No Topps cards !
Finally, in 1967 came a very scarce hi# Topps card, his first Topps and
also most costly card. Adding interest, he had a 1961 Post Cereal card,
years BEFORE
his 'official' rookie. He also photo-bombed a 1960 Topps World Series card,
trying to tag Luis Aparicio at 2nd. There are many different ways to protect, organize and store your sports cards.
Soft Sleeves also called "penny sleeves" are the most basic protection for your cards. Made of thin plastic, they come in packs of 100 and are very inexpensive.
Top Loads are rigid plastic holders and a step up in protection over "soft sleeves". Called top-loads because you place the card thru a thin opening at the top. They come in many sizes for regular cards upto 8-1/2 x 11 for magazines and even larger.
Screw-Down Acrylic Holders
These are sometimes used for better, more expensive cards. Small screws hold
two pieces of clear acrylic together. In a variety of sizes and thickness
that not only protect the card but can funciton as a paper weight or display
item.
There are also Single-Screw Screw-Downs that use only 1 screw to seal the holder. They are easier to use and provide the same type of protectionas regular screwdowns and they are also much less expensive costing as little as .30 in quantity while 1 inch or 2 inch acrylic screw-downs can cost upto several dollars.
