1963 Fleer Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values

Fleer's 1960 & 1961 baseball card issues were not huge successes. They were baseball card sets of old-timers like Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig ... but kids voted a big NO ! They wanted Willie Mays & Mickey Mantle. Fleer had to try something new ... COOKIES !!! Topps had exclusive rights to baseball cards with gum so Fleer packed cherry flavored cookies with their 1963 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.
Disclaimer: Above mostly true - but Wills has said, no feud, simply exclusive agreements.

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 2)

The first important and mainstream basketball set was issued by Bowman in 1948. Other than a Topps set in 1957-58 and a 1961-62 Fleer set, there were no mainstream basketball sets issued until Topps started producing yearly sets beginning with their 1969-70 set featuring the rookie card of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who then went under the name of Lew Alcindor.

In hockey, there were a few sets issued in the 1910's and while O-Pee-Chee issued some sets in the 1930's, the real modern sets began in 1951 with the itroduction of Parkhurst's first set.

In racing, while cards go back as far as the early Indy car days of 1911, modern racing sets began in 1988 with the issues released by MAXX.
