One of the few sets that contains cards of both pro and college players. The pro players include HOFers Kaoru Betto, Michio Nishizawa, Fumio Fujimura, Kazuto Tsuruoka and the immortal Tetsuharu Kawakami. Additionally, one of the college players, Junzo Sekine, went on to be a Hall of Fame member, so this is definitely a Junzo Sekine rookie card! The other pro player in the set is Noboru Aota. The other Tokyo Big Six University players are Sueyoshi-Waseda U., Fujie-Rikkio U., Goi-Rikkio U., Hirakoba-Keio U., Ando-Meiji U. and Tsunemi-Meiji U. Blank backed.

Size: Each card is 1 13/16" in diameter.

Condition: Range-Ex to Nm. Average-Ex/Mt. A few cards are not perfectly centered as is typical for this issue, but overall the centering is very nice for type.
