Description

The second major baseball card release from Topps. The 2 5/8" x 3 3/4" cards feature painted player pictures. The set was released in three series. Series one (1-165), series two (166-220), and series three (221-280). As with most Topps sets, the last series which was released later in the season is more scarce than earlier released series.

The set has many double prints in series 1 and 2. Series 3 has short prints.

The set, originally intended to consist of 280 cards is lacking six numbers (253, 261, 267, 268, 271, and 275). Bob Lemke is credited with identifying the missing players as Harry Brecheen, Pete Castiglione, Billy Cox, Joe Tipton, Ken Wood, and Hoot Evers.
