Koufax’s prices are even higher from a year ago

Moreover I'd like more of Sandy Koufax's Topps cards from 1957-65 to get further along toward completing those sets.

Sounds like you idolize him, despite his linguistic shortcomings.

I have complete or near complete sets of all those issues I listed with the exception of the 1962 Topps. But his 1963 and 1965 Topps cards are indeed fairly high on my Want List since they're particularly nice looking.

I never really liked Sandy Koufax as a pitcher though. As a kid I was more a fan of Juan Marichal and Milt Pappas. These days my favourite pitchers from Koufax's era are Warren Spahn, Hoyt Wilhelm and Jim Bunning.
