1975 Topps Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values

The first think you notice about Topps 1975 baseball cards is their very colorful and thinck borders, many say TOO colorful, TOO thick. Anyway, this set doesn't show up on too many best designed baseball card lists.
But what it lacked in design, it made up in other ways. First was the AWESOME ROOKIE cards for Hall-of-Famers George Brett, Robin Yount, Jim Rice, Fred Lynn and Gary Carter.
Then there was the SUPER POPULAR MVP subset. One of my favorite Topps subsets, there were now many great cards picturing players like Mickey Mantle & Willie Mays.
It didn't stop there. There were several Record Breaker cards featuring greats like Hank Aaron & Nolan Ryan. Plus the always loved League Leaders cards and even more .
AND THE BEST PART --- 1975 Topps Minis !!! Yes, a whole new set, exactly the same, but a slightly smaller size !!!

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 1)

The first baseball trading cards date back to 1869. For many years, baseball cards were packaged in packs of tobacco as a way to increase sales the same way that today prizes are packaged in boxes of cereal. In the 1920's and 1930's, candy and gum companies started packaging baseball cards in their products as well.

Baseball card production was virtually halted in the early 1940's due to paper shortages created by World War II. The "Modern Era" of baseball cards began in 1948 when Bowman Gum Inc. offered one card and one piece of gum in a pack for a penny.

The first important football set was the Mayo set featuring college players in 1984. Other than the 1935 National Chicle set no other key football set was issued until 1948 when noth Bowman and Leaf produced sets.
