1972 Topps FootballThe 1972 Topps Football set contained (351) cards, and came in (3) series. The 3rd series high numbers (#264 to #351) are perhaps the scarcest regular football cards Topps ever made.The set was jam packed with rookies including: Roger Staubach, John Riggins, Archie Manning, Lyle Alzado, Charlie Joyner, Ted Hendricks), Jim Plunkett...
Perhaps the most expensive card in the set is Joe Namath's
Pro Action card, one of the very, very scarce 3rd series high #s.

Authentic Major League SIGNED |
These are the official lineup cards SIGNED BY THE MANAGER & given
to the home plate umpire before the game with the team's line-up
& batting order !!! Making them even neater, often managers made
lineup changes on these cards throughout the game.
These official lineup cards were SIGNED BY THE MANAGER and presented
to the home plate umpire before the game. They detailed the team's lineup and
batting order. Managers often made lineup changes on these cards throughout
the game, making them even more unique.
O-Pee-Chee (OPC) based in Ontario Canada, is mostly thought of as the Canadian version of Topps but it actually pre-dates Topps by many years.
In 1933, OPC issued their first sports card set, the V304 Hockey cards and is currently in the tens of thousands. Their first baseball set was issued in 1937. It was similar to the 1934 Goudeys and Batter-Ups and the top player was Joe Dimaggio.
O-Pee-Chee created baseball card sets similar to TOpps from 1965 into the 1990's. At first OPC sets were much smaller than Topps and included just the first few series. Fronts & backs were nearly identical but with a small "Printed in Canada" on the back and the card stock was slightly different.
Baseball being much less popular in Canada, OPC print runs of their early years were between 1% and 10% of Topps making them exceedingly scarce !!!
Starting in 1970, Canadian legislation demanded all items produced in Canada
carry both French & English so OPC baseball cards became bilingual with both
languages included.
Other OPC differences include:
1971, OPC even changed the back design to a much more
interesting back and also offered 14 different card photos not in the Topps set.
1972 OPC included a card of Gil Hodges mentioning his death that was
not a part of the Topps set.
1974 OPC did not include any "Washington Nationals" variations.
1977 the card format remained like Topps but almost 1/3 of the OPC set had
different poses/images than Topps.
In late 1970's, OPC card fronts appeared similar to Topps but sometimes
included traded information saying "Now with XXXX". They were able to do
this as the OPC cards were printed much later into the season.
