Absolutely love 1961. My favorite '60s design easily. And Wes's card is one of the best. Something about the color of them and contrast, reminds me of '53 bc actually. Also love Aaron's '61 it's my favorite Aaron.

The first major league game I ever saw was the Phillies v. Giants at Shibe Park in Philadelphia in 1963. Jack Sanford of the Giants would have had a one-hit shutout had he not had to face Covington, who went 4 for 4 with a home run. I always had a special interest in Covington after that. The '57 Topps is a great card, too.

I've got a rule that the more lumber that is shown on a card (or baseball photo), the better.
When seeing a photo like that, I always wonder if any of those bats survived to today or were they all used for firewood?
