One of the true iconic sets of the basketball card world, the 1957 Topps collection is just 80 cards in total but includes the rookie cards of all the major stars of the era, including one of the most coveted debut cards ever produced, Bill Russell. This collection is six cards short of completion (15, 16, 17 Cousy, 19 Heinsohn, 24 Pettit, and 44) and includes a very sharp PSA 5 example of #77 Russell. Other PSA graded cards in the set are PSA 7 - #26, 48, 51, 60 and 76. PSA 6.5 - #73. PSA 6 - #6. PSA 3.5 - #40. The rest of the set at 10% NM or better, 30% EX/MT, 30% EX, 20% VG/EX and 10% lower mostly due to the usual centering issues. Key cards are #1 Clifton VG/EX , 2 Yardley EX/MT (OC), 5 Sharman EX/MT (OC PD), 10 Arizin VG/EX, 13 Scheyes GOOD, 28 Mikkensen EX+, 32 Kerr EX/MT (OC PD), 37 Hagan EX (OC), 62 Gallatin EX/MT (OC), 71 Twyman EX/MT (OC), 75 Phillip EX+ (OC), 78 Lovelette EX+ (OC) and 80 Schnittker VG/EX.
