The 1961 Fleer basketball set showcases some of the most important basketball cards in the hobby. The set is highlighted by the rookie cards of Wilt Chamberlain, Oscar Robertson and Jerry West. 35 of the 66 cards in the set are listed individually in the SMR, meaning that there are not many cards in the series that can be labeled a "common". The value of vintage Hall of Fame Rookie cards having risen exponentially over the past five years and offered are fifteen unopened NM to NM-MT packs. Two are graded NM-MT+ 8.5, two are graded NM-MT 8 with one containing a Baylor on top, nine are graded NM+ 7.5 and two are graded NM 7 with one containing a Chamberlain on back. 13 of the 15 packs have been inspected and approved by Steve Hart of Baseball Card Exchange.
