1961 Fleer Baseball Cards

The 1961 Fleer baseball set contained 154 regular-sized cards honoring careers of Hall-of-Famers Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, Lou Gehrig, Honus Wagner, Ted Williams and many lesser known old-timers.
Released in 2 series, the 2nd series cards #89-#154 are somewhat tougher to find.
Fleer was prevented from using current players by Topps' exclusive rights, so they issued their Baseball Greats set using retired players, managers, executives and the two league commissioners. Luckily Fleer had their own exclusive rights deal with Ted Williams, who quickly became the most in demand card in the set.
Unfortunately the weak card design and retired players made it a giant dud with kids and the product was not well received.
Cards were sold in five-cent packs and packaged with two special inserts; a logo team decal and team pennant sticker of past World Series champions.

1958 Hires Root Beer Baseball

The (66) card set came with attached advertising tabs. Cards with their tabs are extremely difficult to find and quite expensive. Cards measure around 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 without their tab and are numbered #10 thru #76, with #69 missing.
Although very small at only (66) cards, it did not lack in star power with Hall-of-Famers including Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Pee Wee Reese, Don Drysdale, Richie Ashburn, Bill Mazeroski, Duke Snider, Larry Doby and others... The wood grain 'knot hole' card design was quite popular at the time and was brought back by their 2003 Bowman Heritage issue.
