Item Description
2.5x3.5". The 1957 Topps Baseball set consists of 407 cards and marked the first year the company would use the now-standard measurement for cardboard collectibles. The 1957 Topps also switched to full color images (either bust portraits or in-action poses) in lieu of handpainted black-and-white photos on the front, with his name and team printed across the bottom, and statistical data on the reverse. Unlike similar Topps entries, the scarcities lie not in the high numbers but in the second of the set's three series - #s 265-352 - and four unnumbered checklist cards printed with one of two different product advertisements on the back.

Sanford Koufax was an American former left-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball (MLB) who played his entire career for the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers from 1955 to 1966. He has been hailed as one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history. Some of his career highlights include being a seven time All-Star, four time World Series Champion, three time Cy Young award winner, league MVP in 1963, and four career no-hitters, one of those being a perfect game. Sandy Koufax was elected to the National Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1972.
