Similar to the 1955 Parkhurst set, the 1960 Topps offering included a subset of "All-Time Greats" from hockey's past. It was a creative way to fill out the set as Topps did not have the rights to the most star filled teams, Detroit, Toronto and Montreal, which were to be found in that seasons Parkhurst issue. Hall of Famer "Phantom" Joe Malone was a prolific goal scorer in the earliest days of the NHL. In 1913-14, with Quebec of the NHA (main pre-cursor of the NHL) he scored 43 times in only 20 games. In 1916-17, again with Quebec, he'd light the lamp 41 times in 19 contests. The following season, as a member of the Montreal Canadiens for the inaugural NHL campaign, he would score an incredible 44 times in only 20 games (also leading the league in scoring). He would lead the NHL again in 1920 with 39 goals and 49 points in 24 games. He won a pair of Stanley Cups and is one of the game's most legendary performers. This All-Time Great is freshly graded 5 EX by SGC.
