1960 Fleer Baseball Cards

The 1960 Fleer baseball set contained 79 regular-sized cards
honoring the careers of Hall-of-Famers like Babe Ruth, Walter
Johnson, Lou Gehrig, Honus Wagner, Ted Williams and more !!!
Fleer was prevented from using current players by Topps'
exclusive rights, so they issued their Baseball Greats set using
retired players, managers, executives and the two league
commissioners. Luckily Fleer had their own exclusive rights deal
with Ted Williams, who quickly became the most in demand card in
the set. Unfortunately the weak card design and retired players
made it a giant dud with kids and the product was not well received.
There are very scarce variations with Joe Tinker,Eddie Collins
& Lefty Grove fronts, all with #80 Pepper Martin backs.
They are usually found cancelled or hand-cut from sheets. Likely
Pepper Martin's card was pulled due to contract issues.
The variations are not considered part of the complete set.

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 2)
The first important and mainstream basketball set was issued by Bowman in 1948.
Other than a Topps set in 1957-58 and a 1961-62 Fleer set, there were no
mainstream basketball sets issued until Topps started producing yearly sets
beginning with their 1969-70 set featuring the rookie card of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,
who then went under the name of Lew Alcindor.
In hockey, there were a few sets issued in the 1910's and while O-Pee-Chee issued
some sets in the 1930's, the real modern sets began in 1951 with the itroduction
of Parkhurst's first set.
In racing, while cards go back as far as the early Indy car days of 1911,
modern racing sets began in 1988 with the issues released by MAXX.
