The 1957 Topps Baseball set consists of 407 cards, each measuring 2-1/2” by 3-1/2". In many ways the series revolutionized the hobby, as it marked the first year the company would use the now-standard measurement for cardboard collectibles. The 1957 Topps also switched to full color images in lieu of hand painted black-and-white photos on the front, with the player name and team printed across the bottom and statistical data on the reverse. The set is anchored by Ted Williams (#1), Roberto Clemente (#76), Mickey Mantle (#95) and Yogi Berra/Mickey Mantle (#407). Key rookies include Jim Bunning, Rocky Colavito, Don Drysdale, Whitey Herzog, Tony Kubek, Bill Mazeroski, Bobby Richardson, Brooks Robinson and Frank Robinson.
