History of Basketball Cards (T4)The first major basketball card issue was released by Bowman Gum Company in 1948. Topps entered the market in 1957. At the time interest was minimal in professional basketball and the Topps issue was considered a failure. Basketball cards were in direct competition with baseball cards at a time when baseball was the nationally broadcasted America's sport. Collectors were not yet ready for basketball or basketball cards and Topps quickly left the basketball card market after just 1 year not to return till 1969. In the 1960's there was rising interest in basketball and basketball card collecting took off, much like baseball card collecting thirty years earlier. In the 1970's basketball cards started to gain popularity and reached a peak in the 1980's and 1990's, partially attribuable to the great Michael Jordan. Today, high grade vintage basketball cards of greats like Jerry West, Bob Cousy, Wilt Chamberlain and Bob Pettit can run into the hundreds and thousands of dollars. Joining them are more recent stars like Kareem Abdul-Jabar, Larry Byrd, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan. Even though basketball cards got a much later start than baseball cards and football cards they are now a part of America's collecting heritage.

1963 FleerThe 1963 Fleer Baseball 67 card set was an attempt by the Fleer Company to break the Topps monopoly on Bubble Gum Cards. In an attempt to get around Topps exclusive agreement with MLB, the 1963 Fleer Baseball Cards were issued with cookies instead of bubble gum.The 1963 Fleer Baseball Cards were intended to be issued in multiple series, but Fleer was run out of business shortly after the first series was released when Topps sued Fleer. Due to either the deep pockets of Topps or the lack of sales - Fleer quickly gave up and never issued another baseball card. The 1963 Fleer Cards are attractive and are packed with stars !!! Along with the stars the two scare 1963 Fleer Short Prints, #46 Joe Adcock and the checklist card make this a fun set to complete. Another interesting feature of this set is card #43, the Maury Wills Rookie card. Wills, the 1962 N.L. MVP had a huge disagreement with Topps when Topps didn't thing Wills was worthy enough in 1961 to have a baseball card. Wills did not allow Topps to make his card till 1967 although he was pictured on a special 1960 World Series card featuring Luis Aparicio stealing 2nd base. Wills is pictured trying to make the tag. Other top cards in the 1963 Fleer set are: Brooks Robinson, Willie Mays, Carl Yastrzemski, Sandy Koufax, Roberto Clemente, Don Drysdale and Warren Spahn. |
1969 Topps StampsThis was Topps 3rd stamp issue in the last eight years and it was a good one !!! The stamps were not inserts but a totally separate issue . For a nickel you got a strip of twelve stamps plus a mini album. The 1969 Topps Stamps complete set contains 240 stamps. The 1 x 1-7/16 inch stamps were unnumbered and featured a color photo with the player's name, team and position inside a colored banner at the bottom of the stamp. The stamps were released in both vertical and horizontal strips of 12 stamps. The 1969 Topps Stamps are often confused with Topps' 1974 issue. The 1974 Topps Stamps have ovals rather than banners at the bottom and were released only in 12-stamp horizontal panels.Along with the stamps, Topps also issued a set of 24 albums, one per team, to store them in. The 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" orange albums were the same size as a baseball card and held a complete 10-stamp team set. To add even more collecting fun, the album's back cover had facsimile autographs of the ten players shown in the album. The 1969 Topps Stamps set is packed with stars like Pete Rose along with tons of Hall-of-Famers including MICKEY MANTLE, Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente & many, many more !!! |
