Comments: I purchased a 1959 Topps AS #555 PSA 8 on eBay in March, 2002. But, eventually I settled on Cepeda representing the 1959 Topps set. In December, 2005 I replaced the card with a 1960 Kahn's Wieners PSA 5, purchased from a dealer and hobby friend Marty Pritchard. A few years later I spotted a beautiful PSA 9 at the Triple SSS (Skerbe Brothers) table at The National. But, I couldn't pull the trigger. For a year I regretted not buying "The Wiener the World Awaited". But, the following year at The National 2009 the card was at their table again. This time I bought it!
   
Card Details Below:  
Year(s): 1960
ACC Set Designation:
Set Name: Kahn's Wieners
Country: United States
Description: Three more teams joined the Kahn's roster in 1960, the Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, and St. Louis Cardinals. Again 3-1/4" X 4" with black-and-white photos, the 1960 Kahn's cards featured for the first time player stats and personal data on the back, except Harvey Kuenn, which was issued with blank back, probably because of the lateness of his trade to the Indians.
