1961 Topps Artwork?

I was looking through my small stack of 1961 Topps cards and came across these two odd ones. They both seem to be paintings (or at least painted over) rather than regular photographs. Does anyone know the story behind them? Are there others like this?

  1. Very interesting. I don't have many '61 Topps cards at all, but I've definitely never noticed any like that...

  2. That's badass! Thanks for posting this over on my blog. How in the world did they decide who got a photo and who got the paint treatment? So far it looks like we've got 3 rookies.
