1964/1965 Challenge the Yankees
Baseball Board Game"Challenge The Yankees" was a popular baseball board game from Hasbro in 1964 & 1965.
(50) player cards: (25) Yankees and (25) All-Star opponents,
made the game a treasure trove for collectors. 4" x 5-1/2" cards
came in blank-backed perforated sheets on a fairly fragile paper
stock.
1964/1965 cards are nearly the same with a stat line the only way
to distinguish. A couple cards even have same stats so no way to tell
them apart.

1953 Topps Baseball Cards |
1959 Fleer Ted Williams baseball cards |
This special 80-card set from the Frank H. Fleer Company honors Ted Williams,
"The Splendid Splinter." While other companies vied for Topps' exclusive player
rights, Fleer successfully secured Ted Williams, who, nearing the end of his
career, remained one of the best and most popular players.
Of particular note is Card #68, "Ted Signs for 1959," which pictures him signing
his contract. The photo also included Red Sox GM Bucky Harris, who was under one
of those exclusive deals with Topps at the time. This led to the card being pulled,
making it extremely scarce. Unfortunately, reprints of the card surfaced in the
1970s. This is widely considered the first baseball card to be
reprinted/counterfeited. Interestingly, the counterfeits were allowed to remain
on the market, so caution is advised when dealing with this card.
Cards were sold in both six-card and eight-card wax packs. For some reason,
the scarcer 8-card packs contained no gum.
It's cool to have a card of your favorite player.
It's even cooler to have your favorite player's jersey or bat.
Well just think how cool it is to have a card of your favorite player
embedded with a piece of his bat or jersey that he used in a real major league game !!!
That's the concept that Upper Deck dazzled the hobby with in 1996. Ever since the
hobby has been in love with Game-Used memorabilia cards and they have become a
staple of sportscard collecting. Originally they were very scarce inserts with
less than 1 every few boxes. Now these insert cards are so popular that
many products include one in every pack.
