1984 O-Pee-Chee (OPC) Baseball
Checklist & Values
The (2) top rookie cards that year were of players who never made
the Hall-of-Fame but they sure had impact. Both played in the
'Big Apple'. Darryl Strawberry with the Mets and Don Mattingly
across town with the Yankees.
Mattingly was the top firstbaseman nearly every year he played but
his career was cut short by injury.
Strawberry's played 17 years in which many he was a top star.
It's likely that other factors kept him out of the Hall.

1961 Topps Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values
The 1961 Topps baseball card set had 587 cards (#1-#598 with some missing numbers).
In addition to the missing cards, 2 cards were accidently numbered #463
(the Braves Team card was supposed to be card #426).

Highlights (11 cards), MVP's (16 cards), Checklists (7 cards plus several variations),
Team cards, Special Multi-Player cards, Managers,
Topps Rookie All-Star Trophies, & Sporting News All-Stars
Of note - 1961 Topps were the first cards bearing the very popular Topps Rookie All-Star Award Trophies.
"High Number" cards (#523-#589) are very scarce.
The least attractive aspect of the 1961 Topps baseball card set
were the capless players !!!
Baseball expansion led to the problem when
Los Angeles Angels were added,
the Washington Senators became the Minnesota Twins
and the Washington Senators got a new franchise.
Because of these changes, tons of players were capless
and looked awful. picture you 50 year old grand-dad.
Life was obviously tougher back then.
