With the arrival of this gorgeous 1961 Fleer #197 Jim Otto RC today, I finished my 1961 Fleer football set. This was an eBay pick-up listed in "lot" form with '74 and '75 Topps Otto cards included. I didn't need (I thought) either of the other two cards so was bidding to win the '61 Fleer. When I pulled out my '74 and '75 Topps sets to check for upgrades, I found my set '74 set was missing #409 Jim Otto LOL!
The Standard Catalog says the '61 Fleer Jim Otto RC is "valued" in NM condition at $45, and I won the three card lot for $16.50. However the seller stung me for $3.99 shipping so I paid 52% book to finish my set. I've been chasing this card for awhile!
