Basic Features

The 1960 Bazooka set consists of 12 panels, each containing three cards, totaling 36 cards. These cards were taken from the bottoms of gum boxes that Topps distributed nationwide that year. All cards have a blank reverse side and are categorized as R414-18. This year marked the introduction of larger boxes featuring panels of three cards, with each player's name, team, and position listed beneath their photo, along with their corresponding numbers. The Glen Hobbie panel can be quite valuable, so be cautious about how you plan to acquire this set. Richie Ashburn is seen wearing a Philly cap in his picture. After the 1959 season, Ashburn was traded to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for three players. He subsequently became the center fielder for the North Siders during the 1960 and 1961 seasons, which explains why he's wearing a different cap.

To ensure you don't purchase a counterfeit piece of history, always obtain a professionally graded card from a trusted seller. Graded cards are expected to appreciate significantly in value over time.
