The Topps Baseball set from 1960 stands as their last full horizontal set and one of the most colorful ever produced. It's also the first set I actively 'chased' as a young collector. I hope you will enjoy checking out these great cards as much as I will enjoy posting them. Please leave a comment or criticism if you feel the need.

#557 Frank Malzone Sport Magazine All Star
Frank Malzone, Sport Magazine '60 All Star Selection
As an All Star: He was a six time All Star, played in seven games without a lot of success. He hit .150 in 20 at bats. He did homer off Don Drysdale in the second of two ASGs in 1959.
In the '60 ASGs: Malzone started both of the games going 0 for 5.
The Card: These All Star cards feature a large cartoon which makes it easy to spot the distinctive style of Jack Davis who made his name working at Mad Magazine.
