Thanks all. I had the card about 30 years ago but it was long gone [probably sold] until I purchased a shoebox collection of a few thousand cards and Topps posters from the original collector who'd amassed it as a kid. He found it in his parents' attic and was really happy to get some cash for what he thought of as junk. The card shown here was one of the pulls from that lot that I decided to keep rather than resell. The cards were pretty rough so I didn't spend a lot of time going through them and conducting an inventory, I just made a cash offer that was accepted. Great thing was I didn't even know it was in there when I bought the whole collection, so I was pretty pleased when I got the box home and had the time to go through it in detail. There was also a 1959 but that one I already had so I offered it for sale. The other fun with the lot was that there were a few totally pristine, never even unfolded, posters, including this one:
