Default Garrincha

Yes. I have a few. The rarest being a Mexican issue form 1960-61. Up to about 1965, non-Brazil cards usually used his full given name rather than "Garrincha".

He was Pele's contemporary but faded with injury and a sad demise.

Pele made an international comeback in 1968 which culminated in the 1970 World Cup Victory.

It sealed his immortality.
