Default 1960 Topps Yankee Autographs - Finally Finished!

Posted By: Jon Canfield

Well, tonight my journey came to an end. About 10 years ago (when I was 15), I decided to try and put together an autograph team set of the Yankees from with 1960 Topps issue. I pursued the team set in my spare time, acquiring unsigned cards, and then writing to living players, meeting them at shows, etc. I was also able to slowly acquire some of the keys to the set such as the coaches card and the elusive Duke Maas. Well, tonight, thanks to eBay, I finished the set, finally acquiring Ken Hunt. This is the first opportunity I have had to purchase a Ken Hunt since I started the set. While I consider the set complete without the Stengel manager card or the Mantle or Maris all star cards, I may pursue them anyway over time. (I do have the Skowron AS card.)
