The high-numbers in this set were taken from vending boxes. 198-card complete set. 10 low-numbers have the “make-a-photo” rubbed off. Stars include: #1 Unitas (EX+), 39 Starr (NM-MT, printer’s marks), 40 Hornung (NRMT+), 59 Brodie rookie (NRMT), 67 Checklist (NRMT, o/c), 71 J. Brown (NRMT+), 77 Brown In Action (EX+, o/c), 122 Checklist (EX-MT), 150 Maynard rookie (NRMT, o/c), 166 Jack Kemp (NM-MT), 182 Otto rookie (NM-MT+), and 198 Checklist (NRMT). Low-numbers average EX-MT with some NRMT cards throughout. High-numbers are gorgeous, dripping with gloss and average NM-MT to Mint. 20 of the 65 cards are off-centered. Set offers some of the nicest ’61 football high numbers I have ever seen!
