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.

Baseball card collecting terms (part B)
Bazooka Bazooka Bubble Gum put baseball cards on the back of their
boxes from 1959 thru 1971. Complete boxes and panels can get extremely costly.
Most kids back then could not afford complete boxes of bubble gum at one
making Bazooka cards quite scarce. I actually don't recall ever obtaining
a Bazooka card directly from a box as a kid. Do you ???
Black Sox Scandal Name given to the the most famous scandal in
baseball history after the 1919 Chicago White Sox versus the Cincinatti Reds
World Series when 8 White Sox players were accused of throwing the series.
Details have remained somewhat unclear. The players were acquitted of
criminal charges but 8 players still received a lifetime ban from
professional baseball including the All-Time great "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.
Blank-Back a card in which nothing is printed on the back.
These cards are usually not in packs and are either "PROOF ISSUES" or
were removed from the factory in some way.
Blanket a term used for collectibles in the 1910's made of fabric .
Border is the part of the card that surrounds the photo or image.
Bowman was a card manufacturer in the 1940's and 1950's that was
bought out by Topps. In 1989 Topps started issuing cards using the Bowman
brand.
Break a term used to indicate the opening of a set, pack, box or case.
Break Value is the total book value of each card added up individually.
The break value of a set is usually way, way more than the value of the complete set.
