1955 Topps Baseball - 8 Card Lot

Description: 1955 Topps card lot of 8 cards.1955 Topps BaseballThe popular 1955 Topps Baseball set is one of their most beautiful of the 1950s - perhaps ever. The cards feature two pictures of every player and a facsimile signature. These cards are super tough to find in top condition. A variety of factors contribute to this, including poor quality control in printing, their age, and the fact that they are all on a delicate white stock. While the cards are numbered up to 210, there are four cards that were never issued. This is the second smallest set that Topps has ever issued, helping to make it a favorite among collectors. The cards are all positioned horizontally and are sized larger than what we now consider a standard size. Measuring 3-3/4 by 2-5/8, 1955 Topps was the first horizontally-oriented design to be released by Topps. The larger size and horizontal configuration allow it to have a lot of elements on the front, but not appear to be cluttered. The 1955 Topps high number series of cards, ranging from #161 to #210, were issued in smaller numbers and sell for a premium. They can be tough to find in higher grade. The 1955 Topps Set has a strong group of Hall of Fame Rookie Cards: #164 Roberto Clemente, #123 Sandy Koufax, #124 Harmon Killebrew. The backs of these cards are a delight for vintage card fans. They feature stats, a bio, a cartoon and a trivia question. Shipping For single cards and small lots over $20, I ship a first class package, typically within one business day of your purchase. Single cards are shipped in a top loader or card saver and placed between two slabs of cardboard. They will generally come in a manila catalog envelope. Small lots (less than 10 cards) over $20 will typically be shipped with the top card in a top loader and the rest of the cards behind it, secured in a plastic bag. This bundle is then secured between two slabs of cardboard and placed in a manila catalog envelope. Medium-sized and larger lots over $20 may be shipped several ways depending on their size. Medium sized lots will often be bagged and placed in small stacks between two slabs of cardboard. These will typically arrive in a manila catalog envelope. Larger lots may arrive as a first-class package in a box or in a priority flat rate padded envelope. Either way these will be secured snugly in a cardboard box for the ride. Single cards and lots under $20 that qualify will arrive in the ebay standard envelope. Single cards will be placed in a top loader and wrapped in a sheet of paper. Your card will arrive in a plain white envelope. Qualifying lots are bagged in small stacks and placed between two pieces of box board. These cards will arrive in a plain white envelope or manila catalog envelope. The ebay standard envelope provides tracking. I strive to make your cards easy to remove from the packaging, but also secure for shipping. I have shipped thousands of packages securely using these packaging methods for going on 20 years. You may note that I use the words “usually” and “typically” throughout. Due to the unique nature of the lots and products, there may be times where I have to deviate slightly from the box or envelope used to accommodate the purchase. Grading In general, I try not to assign a grade to cards because it’s not an exact science that is open to interpretation. However, sometimes I feel compelled to do so given the nature of the lot. This grade should be taken only as a rough guideline. Please base your purchasing decisions on your review of the photos and not the grade I assign. In the case I do assign a grade, I use the following guidelines: Mint – I’ll probably never call an ungraded card mint.Near Mint – A truly outstanding example. 60/40 centering or better. Near-perfect corners. No other flaws.Excellent MT – Corners can have minor to moderate wear. No significant surface, edge or printing issues. Centering should be 80/20 or better. No other major problems on the card.Excellent – A decent mid-grade card. Centering 90/10 or better. Corners can have moderate wear but are not rounded. No creasing or other major flaws are present.VG/EX – Borders on mid and lower grade. Corners show wear and may have slight rounding. No major creases, writing, pinholes or serious damage. This card can be way off center, but not miscut.Very Good – A good solid card that is lower grade. This card maintains good eye appeal but may have some creasing. The card could be miscut of other flaws are not present.Good – This is a low-grade card. The card has significant flaws that hurt the appeal. It may have writing, pin holes, severe creasing, etc. The whole card is intact, but that’s about all it has going for it.Fair – This is a completely beat card that could serve as a fillerPoor – Can have anything and everything described above. Entire card is not intact. 2178
