@HeavyJ28 @Topps @SABRbbcards @CardboardHistry @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @vossbrink @buettner_mike @MarkArmour04 Roland Sheldon #541 was my final for 1961. Had a surprisingly hard time finding an affordable one 10 years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

There are no cards #587 or #588. Based on the 7th Series checklist, #589 Warren Spahn was meant to be #587 and was misnumbered. So there are no “missing” cards like the 1958 Ed Bouchee. https://t.co/Kj3CFWts95 — PolitiTweet.org

Aside from the loaded All-Star series, Hall of Famer Hoyt Wilhelm (#545) is among the 1961 high numbers. @wilhelm_hoyt https://t.co/ONCtLvCS5d — PolitiTweet.org

The 1961 Sporting News All-Star design was so cool @Topps reprised it in 1970. Only three players appear in both. https://t.co/mAKOANriRS — PolitiTweet.org

Carpet o’ Cards: 1961 @Topps high numbers. Aside from relative scarcity, the 22 All-Star cards (with 12 Hall of Famers + Maris) make this a challenge for set builders. @SABRbbcards @CardboardHistry @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @vossbrink @buettner_mike @MarkArmour04 https://t.co/JZUpINpSii — PolitiTweet.org

@vossbrink @nightowlcards @pcooleybeck @SABRbbcards @Topps @CardboardHistry @VintageCardsOn1 Excellent detective work. So a little bit of artistic license was exercised. https://t.co/HEraOoYDEM — PolitiTweet.org

@nightowlcards @pcooleybeck @SABRbbcards @Topps @CardboardHistry @VintageCardsOn1 I think you’re right — but if so, the dirt for the third base line is about 20 feet wide. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve previously noted @Topps’ fondness for quotation marks in the set, though Yogi Berra, Sandy Koufax & a few others somehow escaped. https://t.co/pQxpruN3lh — PolitiTweet.org

@atk825 @SABRbbcards @BallparkTeddy @Topps @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @buettner_mike @vossbrink @MOReilly_58 @HenryLouisAaron Intriguing possibility. Not sure how many early-1967 shots they were using in the 5th series, when that card appeared. — PolitiTweet.org

@BillKhan @Topps @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @buettner_mike @vossbrink @MOReilly_58 @HenryLouisAaron Absolutely -- I was in 4th grade and had seen very few cards from the 1950s or early '60s. The Aaron retrospectives and the 1951-74 MVP subset the following year were eye-openers. — PolitiTweet.org
