Item Description
2.5x3.5". The 1964 Topps Stand-Ups set consists of 77 cards. The blank-backed and unnumbered cards were the first since the All-Star sets of 1951 to be die-cut. Each one features a full action pose of a player set against a yellow and green background (with the top half yellow and bearing folding instructions; when the figure is "punched out," it allows the item to stand freely with a green base). This feature, along with the flush-to-the-border design of the set, makes finding these unusual and excessively fragile cards in high grade especially difficult. Of the 77 cards, 22 were single-printed, making them twice as scarce.
Harmon Clayton Killebrew Jr., nicknamed "The Killer" and "Hammerin' Harmon", was an American professional baseball first baseman, third baseman, and left fielder. He was a prolific power hitter who spent most of his 22-year career in Major League Baseball with the Minnesota Twins. At the time of his retirement, Killebrew had the fifth most home runs in major league history. He was second only to Babe Ruth in American League (AL) Home Runs, and was the AL career leader in home runs by a right-handed batter. Killebrew was inducted into the National Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1984.
