The Los Angeles Dodgers enjoyed the franchise's second World Championship title since relocating to sunny California, with the 1963 MLB season also noteworthy as Sandy Koufax became the just the second player of Jewish ancestry to win World Series MVP. This lot offers a 1963 Topps baseball complete set. Containing 572 cards, the average condition range for the set is EX to EX/MT, with a slight humidity curve to a number of cards. We should also note that the majority of the cards have the respective player's uniform number handwritten in pencil on the back of each card, with some of the star cards having the numbers partially erased. The listed approx grades for the following cards as well as the remainder of the set DO NOT reflect this defect.
