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.

Topps created these in their 1958 High Number issue and has continued the practice fairly regularly to date. Such cards are usually designated in price guides with the abbreviation of AS.

Assorted A general mix of cards often containing many duplicates.
