1968 Topps baseball set 596 out of 598-card near complete set. With a brown and white border this set is deceptively more condition-sensitive than most collectors realize. This issue is noted for its first-year appearances of Johnny Bench and Nolan Ryan. Highlights include: #45 Tom Seaver, VG (OC), #50 Willie Mays VG, #80 Rod Carew EX, #110 Hank Aaron EX, #150 Roberto Clemente EX (OC), #177 Nolan Ryan EX (OC), #230 Pete Rose EX, #247 Johnny Bench VG, #280 Mickey Mantle VG, #330 Roger Maris EX, #355 Ernie Banks VG (OC), #374 Roberto Clemente AS EX-MT, #480 Manager's Dream EX-MT, #490 Mantle/Mays/Killebrew EX (OC), #500 Frank Robinson EX, #528 Tigers VG, and 575 Palmer NM. Overall this is a sharp consistent set with many grading opportunities overall VG to EX-MT set.

***Please note this set is missing card #115 (Sam McDowell) and #551 (Darrell Sutherland)***
