Each is 1-1/8" tin litho. Topps initial marketing materials promoted 90 different but actually produced only 60, sold with a piece of gum in a box picturing Ted Williams for 5¢. All images used on these buttons match the 1956 Topps baseball card series photos. There are a total of 12 Hall of Famers included in the set: Hank Aaron, Ernie Banks, Yogi Berra, Gil Hodges, Al Kaline, Ed Mathews, Willie Mays, Phil Rizzuto, Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider, Warren Spahn and Ted Williams. Three rarities exist: Chuck Diering, Hector Lopez and Chuck Stobbs. As is typical w/litho buttons the scattered wear includes paint nicks and scratches. Set retains glossy appearance and color is deep and rich. Mostly Fine to VF. A desirable baseball button issue that is not an easy task to assemble, so this is a rare opportunity to obtain the set all at once. Our last set, in similar condition, sold in July 2023 for $3,245.
