Issued in two series, each card bears a full-color portrait resting against a colored background; a pennant-shaped logo at the bottom of the card contained the player's name, with stars along the sides and stripes at the lower border. As with Fleer's prior year's entry, the 1961 set carried with it a wide selection of Hall of Famers.
