Overview: The 1959 Topps Warren Spahn card comes in three versions, differing by the birth year listed on the back. The first, and accurate, version states he was born in 1921. The second incorrect version says 1931, and the final one has blurred ink making the date unclear.
The unclear version with the mistake sells for slightly more. If you’re looking to complete your ’59 Topps set or just want this card, the 1921 version is a good pick.

Final Thoughts
When assessing 1959 Topps baseball cards, their condition is key to determining value, with near-mint and mint cards fetching high prices due to their scarcity in top condition.
