Anyway I bought a big stack of '50s and '60s non sports cards along with this 1960 Leaf card for $25 total. So I would guess this card cost me $3 or $4 max. I took a peak at the price guide when I got home, to find out this is one of the most expensive cards included in the hi numbers (only #125 Sparky Anderson and the last card in the set #144 Jim Bunning book higher). It's a cool card!

Nice pick-up Larry. I've always thought that if the 1960 Leaf set had been done in color, it would be a lot more popular than it is. Regardless, I think it's a nice set. Good luck with it!
