1962 Maury Wills - Any cards made for him other than Post?

His MVP year, but he's not in the Topps set. I know that he is in the Post set (and maybe post canadian). Anybody know of anything else?

    Jello I hadn't thought of (or Bell Brand). The others are coins aren't they? Thanks.

    The Saladas and Shirriffs are coins. The rest are cards.

    His '63 Fleer is also designated as '62 MVP on the front of the card.

    Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

    Am doing a MVP set (1931 - present) and want cards issued in the year the award was won. Obviously some tough years/issues out there - this is one I haven't seen for a couple of months. Looking for NM or better for the 1960's cards - if anyone can help I'd appreciate it. Not in a hurry though - I'll be glad to finish in 3 years or so.

    The 1960 and 1961 Union Oil are booklets, not cards. They are extremely fun to read, because of how dated the attitudes and commentary are.

    75 topps has what the 62 card would have looked like in the mvp subset.

    IMHO, this is the nicest card of Wills issued during his MVP season:

    ^ I would find that hard to argue with. Fabulous looking card.

    That Bell Brand is dandy. I imagine a 7 on that card would run some $. I will be thrilled to get any of the three in NM, but that Bell is definitely the Cadillac of the group.

    There's also a mid-80s K-Mart box set which I believe includes a mock-up of what the '62 Topps Maury Wills card would've looked like....
