This must be the first time he gets his name on a card. It's a 1960 Bell Brand.

Are we sure he only flashed leather?

It wasn't a licensing issue with Wills
Wills attended a Detroit Tigers camp. He was the only prospect Topps did not sign in the Camp. Their scout thought he was not Major League material. He was returned to the Dodgers. Wills resented he was not originally signed and held out from Topps his first few years after he made the Majors. Players received a nominal fee from Topps along with some crap from a catalog.

And strange that Topps included his non-card from 1962 as part of their 1975 MVP sub-set.

As a youngster in the early 60s, growing up around a lot of Dodger fans, why he wasn’t in our sets was a much discussed mystery in our schoolyard. Discovering his Fleer card was a big deal but we still were perplexed by his absence in Topps
