1974 Topps Stamps
Checklist & Values


The 1974 Topps Stamps set had (240) 1 x 1-1/2 inch stamps, 10 per team. Issued in horizontal 12-stamp panels (2 rows of 6), the panels came in different combinations of rows so there are actually 24 different panels (288 stamps) in a complete 1974 Topps Stamps panel set.
Player collectors - your favorite may appear on 2 different panels !!!

Cursed with production problems, horrible centering and most panels had little or no border on one side. Also perforations on most panels are not in proper place.

1974 & 1969 Topps stamps are easily confused. With very similar player selection, major difference is 1974's oval vs 1969's banner at bottom. The 1969 stamps came in both vertical & horizontal panels.

1974 Mini-albums to house the stamps have been seen but may not have been actually released by Topps while the 1969 albums are all over the place.

Packed with SuperStars with over 23 Hall-of-Famers including greats like Nolan Ryan, Hank Aaron, Johnny Bench and Pete Rose. Also includes seldom seen ROOKIES of Dave Winfield & Dave Parker.

Are sports cards valuable ?

Like all collectibles, over time some sports cards go down in value, others go up and some can even become very valuable. Card values are based on many factors: player popularity, scarcity, condition & collector interest. A card can be scarce but without demand value may not be great.

Q: What are some ways to collect cards ? * Complete sets by year & issue
* Cards of your favorite player
* Cards of your favorite team "TEAM SETS"
* Rookie cards
* Hall-of-Famer cards
* I even had a girlfriend that collected Don Mossi (checkout his ears), players whose last name start with "Z", and the Brett brothers George & Ken (she had a crush on George).
* "TYPE COLLECTING" (everyone should at least do a little of this !)

"Type Collecting"
is collecting at least one of each different "type" of issue. On scarcer issues you can add a less expensive common while on others you can select your favorite player or team.
