1963 Topps, Don Larsen

Card No. 163

The only man to ever twirl a no-hitter or perfect game in World Series history, Don Larsen is today's Jukebox gem....This is another one I've inherited from my old man's boyhood collection....Larsen's perfect game occured as a member of the Yankees in Game 5 of the 1956 Series....Don's first Topps card was in the '56 set....He's pictured as a Houston Astro on his final Topps card in '65....Appeared in 46 games out of the bullpen for the Giants in 1963, compiling a 7-7 record and 4 saves.
