I find centering to be a really big issue on that set especially on the Banks Rookie.

Default WooHoo!!! 1959 Topps Baseball...D.O.N.E.!!!
Just received the last card I needed for this set. I paid a lot of attention to picking up nicely centered examples of each card and the average condition would be EX/EX-MT or better. Thanks to all who followed me on my journey or helped me along the way. Still working on my 1954 and 1956 Topps sets so be sure to keep up with those projects, too!

Congrats Matt. This was the first Topps set I finished. Started in 59 and finished it later ( high #s)in the late 60s. As a result it is my personal favorite.

Now you need the variations
