Will bring the level of Aaron awesomeness down a bit but continue the Hammer theme nonetheless.

The magazine is what I believe to be Aaron's first solo cover on a national publication. (First SI wasn't till 1969!)

The two cards are from the 1960 Nu-Card Baseball Hi-lites set. Prices are funny...I see anywhere from $10-$150 for mid-grade. Note that the "beats Yankees" photo is actually Aaron's "beats Cardinals" pic...an error that was corrected in the 1961 Nu-Card Baseball Scoops set.
