Fresh to the hobby high grade perfectly matched complete set of 1964 Topps Baseball with just about every card appearing to be NM-MT or better. Set was originally purchased by the consignor from an ad in The Trader Speaks in the late 1960's. When he received the set it came in the form of 7 small blue boxes each containing a different series indicating it was probably a Topps Presentation Set. When received the set was placed originally in a metal filing cabinet where it remained until we placed it in an album and pages for protection. We have pulled the 18 most expensive cards in the set and sent them to PSA for grading. 16 of the 18 came back NM PSA 7 or better with the Hank Aaron coming back a MINT PSA 9. Needless to say we felt some of the NM 7 cards look much better than the given grade. The key cards are: #9 NL HR Leaders NM PSA 7 21 Yogi Berra(HOF) NM PSA 7 50 Mickey Mantle(HOF) NM PSA 7 55 Banks(HOF) NM PSA 7 125 Rose EX PSA 5 136 World Series Game 1 (Koufax) NM PSA 7 150 Mays(HOF) NM-MT PSA 8 200 Koufax(HOF) NM PSA 7 210 Yastrzemski(HOF) NM PSA 7 225 Maris NM-MT PSA 8 300 Aaron MINT PSA 9 331 A.L. Bombers (Maris/Cash/Mantle/Kaline) NM-MT PSA 8 380 Ford(HOF) NM PSA 7 400 Spahn(HOF) EX-MT PSA 6 423 Tops IN N. L. (Aaron/Mays) NM-MT PSA 8(MC) 440 Clemente(HOF) NM PSA 7 460 Gibson(HOF) NM PSA 7 541 Niekro(HOF) NM PSA 7.
Loads of further grading possibilities here!
