This lot features a complete set of 1963 Topps baseball in overall EX condition. A consistently matched set, the most noticeable detraction throughout is corner wear visible against the delicate colored borders. Four cards have been selected for grading including #200 Mickey Mantle SGC 60, 300 Willie Mays SGC 80, 537 Pete Rose Rookie SGC 40 and 540 Roberto Clemente SGC 86. While it would be rare to find a card as worn as the Rose rookie among the balance of the set, the Mays and Clemente are good indicators of the higher grade cards scattered throughout the set.
