1960 Leaf
 

I am mostly a Topps and Fleer set collector but bought a few packs of Leaf cards when a kid and so finally decided to complete that set. There are 3 variations to it. Card 25 can be found with either a photo of Brooks Lawrence or Jim Grant, but both identified as Grant. And Hal Smith's card 58 can be found with 3 different backs ( team name present, omitted or blotted out).

Fleer packaged the cards with Marbles to avoid the Topps player contracts which generally allowed them the exclusive right to package a player's image with either gum or candy ( also the reason for the 1963 Fleer cookies). The packs are series from one and two

It's a cool little set, what I always found interesting was the general lack of stars, and the inclusion of a lot of players that were way below average in such a small set.

Very cool. I have often thought about digging into that set, very unique. Thanks for sharing the pictures of the packs, interesting they say "Baseball Photos", they really resemble that.

Cards 73-144
 

Are very very difficult

Indeed they are. 1-72 only take money to buy them. 73-144 are a pain to locate. I just out and out gave up. The set is nice but it never was more than something to look for in between looking for things I really wanted. I admit defeat.:D

The second series pack also goes for a good deal more than the first.
But, if you are a master set guy, the toughest card is the 3d Hal Smith card (58)with the team blotted out rather than just missing

One of my All-Time favorite cards and best deals. I got this for $9 in 1993.
