The one and only, Mr. Tiger, Al Kaline was a 18x All-Star, and I've been wanting his 1960 Topps AS card for a very long time.
1960 Topps #561 Al Kaline
As the 1960 Topps cards were making their debut, I was making mine, over at Borgess Hospital in Kalamazoo, on February 19, 1960.
That's why the Kaline AS card is so special to me... I love the number 60 behind the Kaline shadow.
➡️ In 1959 Kaline batted .327, with 27 homers and 94 RBI, securing his appearance as a 1960 Sport Magazine All-Star Selection.
🤲 The only time I had actually held a 1960 Kaline AS card was at a local show here in Kalamazoo a couple of years ago, when I didn't have enough money to buy the card.
Now I have completed my 1960 Topps bookends of the great Tigers right fielder.
Have a great week... Play BALL! 🐱
Both of those cards are awesome! Hope you're feeling better.

DeleteAmazing cards! 1960 is one of my fave Topps designs. Hope the sunshine we're having eases your pain somewhat.
