My Favorite Cards 1960 to 1964

 I'm trying hard to understand why it has been since June 19th since I posted anything.  Laziness? Work stress? Laziness? Scanning cards? Laziness?

I think I'm voting laziness, even though the other things have contributed. 

I was going year by year showing my favorite cards but decided that for the 1960's I would just do two posts.  Since I posted all of my Spahn and Kaline pickups earlier this year I am excluding them from this post because they would fill it up.

Here are the candidates for my favorite cards from this era:

1960 Fleer Ty Cobb - This is a set I would complete if I ever won the lottery.  A great way to collect cards of all-time greats that I could not afford playing era cards of.

1960 Leaf Rocky Nelson - I love the pure design of this set.  Another I might eventually try and complete.  This is a high number cards so was tougher to get originally.  Big crease and a pen number on the front don't take anything away from it for me.

1962 Topps Hank Aaron - This wood border set is near the bottom of my personal Topps design rankings but this is my earliest Aaron so it has to be up for consideration.  It pairs nicely with my 1962 Aaron All-Star card.

1963 Fleer Vic Power - The first Fleer base set.  I also have a Ralph Terry card from this set but there is no way I would put a Yankee cards up for consideration.

1964 Topps NL RBI Leaders - Leaders cards are a great way to collect affordable Hank Aaron cards from his playing days.  I would have considered the 1963 NL Batting leaders cards with it's selection of stars but cards with floating heads creep me out.

Let me know which of these is your favorite or if you have one of your own from this era in your collection.
