The Celtics Bill Russell Cards from Too Many Verlanders

Way back in December Too Many Verlanders was involved in some house cleaning - getting rid of unneeded or unwanted cards.  Somebody had already scarfed up the Phillies by the time I got involved in the fun.  There are tons of things I am interested in so I asked for any Celtics and Vikings cards that TMV could send my way. I know, I know - I have strange allegiances - someday I will ge to that.

One of the fun insert sets I forgot was the Topps Missing Years Series of Bill Russell cards that were issued in the 2007-08 basketball set. A couple of these cards were among the bounty sent over from TMV

2007-2008 Topps Bill Russell Missing Years (1965) 

2007-2008 Topps Bill Russell Missing Years (1967)
2007-2008 Topps Bill Russell Missing Years (1961) 

All are pretty decent examples of the original Topps cards.  The 1965 Topps set will always be a favorite.  The 65 and 67 photos are both pretty decent action shots, although Willis Reed was a rookie in the 1964-65 season so that picture may be post 1965.  There was also a 1960 Missing Years card in the batch - which gives me 4 cards from the 11 card set which runs from 1958-1968.
