1961 Topps #463b Milwaukee Braves Team
Two different 1961 Topps cards carry printed number 463: this Braves team card and Jack Fisher. The Braves card was issued in the fifth series in the slot meant for #426 -- a number the set never used -- so collectors catalogue it as 463b.
Uncorrected error: The back is numbered #463, but the 5th-series checklist lists this card as #426.
Printed #463 carries two different cards: #463 Jack Fisher; #463b Milwaukee Braves Team (this card). Each is listed and tracked on its own here, lettered the way the hobby catalogs them.
Hall of Famers on the 1960 Milwaukee Braves roster: Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews, Red Schoendienst, Warren Spahn and Joe Torre.
About this card
The sixteen team cards pair a club photo with the previous season's record. Neither 1961 expansion club, the Los Angeles Angels or the new Washington Senators, has one.
The story on this card
This 1961 Topps team card reports the 1960 Milwaukee Braves: 88-66, second in the National League, seven games behind a Pittsburgh club that went on to win the World Series. Chuck Dressen managed his first year at County Stadium, hired after Fred Haney resigned. Milwaukee led the league in home runs and slugging; Hank Aaron took the RBI crown with 126, Eddie Mathews hit 39 homers, and Warren Spahn went 21-10 with a no-hitter at 39. Five eventual Hall of Famers were on the roster: Aaron, Mathews, Spahn, Red Schoendienst and a two-game September call-up named Joe Torre. A fifth-series card; two cards carry printed number 463, so this one is catalogued 463b.
