Here is an original card from the 1963 Fleer set of Baseball Cards. The 1963 Fleer Baseball set consists of 66 cards, each measuring 2-1/2" by 3-1/2”. Unlike prior Fleer sets, the 1963 issue honored the day’s current players in full color (as opposed to Hall of Famers or former superstars); the remainder of the card was white, with his name, team and position appearing at the bottom border. Another noticeable difference was the set’s size, as a lawsuit filed by rival card manufacturer Topps forced Fleer to stop production at one series of 66 cards. This is #5 which is of Willie Mays of the San Francisco Giants. He was inducted into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame with the class of 1979. During his career, Mays was a 24 time All-Star (1954–1973) and was a World Series champion (1954). He won 2 NL MVP (1954, 1965) as well as the NL Rookie of the Year (1951). He earned being a 12 time Gold Glove Award (1957–1968) and the Roberto Clemente Award (1971) and was the NL batting champion (1954). Mays was a 4 time NL home run leader (1955, 1962, 1964, 1965) as well as being a 4 time NL stolen base leader (1956–1959). He hit 4 home runs in one game on April 30, 1961. The San Francisco Giants retired his No. 24 jersey as did the New York Mets. He was honored as a member of the San Francisco Giants Wall of Fame, the Major League Baseball All-Century Team and the Major League Baseball All-Time Team. It is in nice displaying condition with a good look. It has been professionally graded by the BVG Company and they rated it as a 4.5, which stands for Very Good to Excellent condition. It comes in their acid-free holder for display and preservation.
