Description

1960 Leaf is a 144-card set of active players produced jointly by Sports Novelties, Inc., and Leaf. As an end-around Topps' monopoly of producing baseball cards of active players with or without "confectionery products," each pack came with a marble instead of gum.

Cards 73-144 are more difficult to find than the lower numbers. Photo variations exist (probably proof cards) for the eight cards listed with an asterisk and there is a well-known error card, number 25 showing Brooks Lawrence (in a Reds uniform) with Jim Grant's name on front, and Grant's biography and record on back. The corrected version with Grant's photo is the more difficult variety.

Distribution

24 cards per pack, five cards plus one marble per pack. (MSRP: $0.05).
