This well “loved” assembly has an approximate condition breakdown of 10% (VG or better), 30% (GD), 30% (FR) and 30% (PR) with the tougher high series generally presenting on par with the more available numbers. Nearly 40% displays reverse paper loss/residue, tape, trimming and/or writing. Highlights include: #27 Campanella (FR), #37 Mathews (GD), #41 Slaughter (FR), #54 Feller (FR), #61 Wynn (PR, writing), #62 Irvin (FR), #66 Minoso (FR), #76 Reese (FR), #77 Mize (FR), #78 Schoendienst (GD), #81 Black (GD), #86 B. Martin (GD), #104 Berra (GD), #114 Rizzuto (GD), #138 Kell (FR), #147 Spahn (FR), #151 Wilhelm (GD), #191 Kiner (PR), #207 Ford (GD), #220 Paige (GD), #228 Newhouser (PR), #246 Face RC (PR), #254 Roe (FR), #258 Gilliam RC (VG), #263 Podres RC (FR), #273 Haddix RC (GD) and #280 Bolling RC (PR, tear).
