1974 Topps & Parker Brothers Football
In 1974, along with cards in wax packs, Topps also issued the football
cards used in Parker Brothers' "Pro Draft" board game. The (50) Parker Brothers
cards are skip numbered from the 1st 132 Topps cards and are all
offensive players, mostly from the skill positions.
Most Parker Brothers cards are similar to the ones from packs except on the back
where most Parker Brothers cards had 1972 stats instead of 1973 and (2)* rather
than (1)* in the copyright line. BUT NOTE: Some regular Topps cards have
both * and ** --- It's complicated!
Six of the cards have totally different designs; three All-Pros and three with
horizontal designs that were changed to vertical to match the rest of the cards.
Team checklist cards were randomly included in the Topps wax packs.
TOP ROOKIES: Joe DeLamielleure, Ray Guy, Bert Jones, Harold Carmichael,
John Matuszak, Ahmad Rashad, Chuck Foreman, John Hannah and actor Ed Marinaro.

In 1969, to commemorate Baseball's 100th Anniversary, CITGO released their
"Famous Baseball Player Coin Collection" of 20 brass coated metal coins.
On the front, the coins featured the player's name and a raised image of
his head. The back displayed a banner honoring baseball's s 100th Anniversary.
The coins are approx. 1" in diameter and are very susceptible to
tarnishing due to oxidation.
Customers received a single coin in it's sealed pack free with a fill-up and
could pay 25 cents for additional coins.
The 20 coin set could be inserted into a cardboard backing for display.
On the back of the display was a short bio with stats of each player.

Baseball, Football, Basketball & Hockey Memorabilia Cards
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.
Be sure you visit our Game-Used card section with nearly 1,000 available at
discount prices.
