Very attractive mid- to high-grade complete 12-card set of 1960-1961 Kahn’s Wieners basketball cards, highlighted by the rookie cards of Hall of Famers Oscar Robertson and Jerry West. The very scarce 1960-1961 Kahn's Wieners basketball set features eleven members of the Cincinnati Royals and also Lakers star West. This is only the second complete set we have offered in the past twenty-one years! Each card has been graded and encapsulated by PSA. This set currently ranks first on the PSA Set Registry. PSA Grading Composite: NM-MT+ 8.5 (2 cards): Staverman and Wilfong. NM-MT 8 (1 card): Jordan. NM 7 (1 card): Boozer. EX-MT 6 (2 cards): Davis and Reed. EX 5 (3 cards): Bockhorn, Embry, and Farmer. VG 3 (2 cards): Robertson RC and Twyman. GOOD 2 (1 card): West RC. One card was issued with each package of Kahn's meats. Because of the product with which they were packaged, heavy grease stains and creases are common with this issue, making it all the more difficult to assemble a high-grade set. This is a very attractive mid- to high-grade complete set of this popular and attractive issue. Kahn's Wieners cards are far rarer than most 1960s basketball cards and are one of the few food issues of the era. Total: 12 cards.
