1993 Topps Inaugural
Colorado Rockies Set

In 1993 Topps produced a limited number of special factory sets to honor the Colorado Rockies first season. A special gold foil Rockies logo was added to each card.
The initial print run of 5,000 ran out quickly so the Rockies had 5,000 more sets made. Cards were only available as factory sets so singles and team sets are a bit tougher to find.

1963 Topps Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values

1963 had it's share of well known rookies including the most expensive 1960's rookie PETE ROSE !!!
Other TOP ROOKIES were Hall-of-Famers Tony Oliva, Willie Stargell, and Gaylord Perry plus stars like Bill Freehan and Rusty Staub.
An interesting card is #522 Rookie Stars picturing the White Sox Gary Peters and (3) others. The interesting part is that Gary Peters had his own Topps card in 1962, and 1961 and even 1960 !!! Seems his career may have been in reverse.

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 2)

The first important and mainstream basketball set was issued by Bowman in 1948. Other than a Topps set in 1957-58 and a 1961-62 Fleer set, there were no mainstream basketball sets issued until Topps started producing yearly sets beginning with their 1969-70 set featuring the rookie card of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who then went under the name of Lew Alcindor.

In hockey, there were a few sets issued in the 1910's and while O-Pee-Chee issued some sets in the 1930's, the real modern sets began in 1951 with the itroduction of Parkhurst's first set.

In racing, while cards go back as far as the early Indy car days of 1911, modern racing sets began in 1988 with the issues released by MAXX.
