Holiday Auction 2021 Dec 20-Jan 8/9
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 1/9/2022
A near set, containing 189 of the 1955 Topps Baseball issue's 206 subjects, is presented. Each of these collectibles has had the tips of all four corners removed. Thus, although these cherished rectangles are now, instead, octagonal, their inherent charisma is surprisingly undiminished. The revered legends and familiar mainstays populating the issue – including Aaron, Berra, Snider, Williams, Banks and Kaline, as well as Sandy Koufax and Harmon Killebrew in their Rookie Card appearances – remain delightful to view. Missing #'s 135, 163, 164, 171, 172, 178, 181, 182, 188, 189, 192, 193, 194, 200, 201, 205 and 207 for completion. (Numbers 175, 186, 203 and 209 were not issued.) Poor condition.
