1969 Topps Stamps |
The 1969 Topps Stamps set contained (240) 1x1-7/16 inch unnumbered stamps
with player's photo and name,team & position inside a colored banner.
The stamps were released in both horizontal (2 rows of 6) & vertical (2 columns of 6).
1969 Topps Stamps are often confused with Topps' 1974 issue.
The 1974 Stamps have ovals rather than banners at bottom and
came only in horizontal 12-stamp panels. 
To store the stamps, Topps issued a set of 24 mini albums,
one for each team. The booklets were the same size as a baseball card
and held a complete 10-stamp team set.
More fun for kids, the back cover had facsimile autographs of
all the players in the team set. The design is nearly identical to the
Topps 1969 football 4-in-1 stamp booklets. Die-Cut A special card that differs from a basic card by "Die-Cutting", cutting away portions of the card to create a special design. Most are serially numbered & limited.
Error Card Baseball card history is filled with error cards, many of them very interesting. Hank Aaron is on 2 of my favorite error cards. Aaron's 1956 Topps card action photo shows Aaron sliding home but it is actually Willie Mays not Aaron. Topps again goofed on Aaron's 1957 "reversed negative" card showing Aaron batting left-handed.
"Error Cards" are usually found early in print runs and often corrected. When this correction happens a VARIATION is created. Some variations are extremely interesting and very expensive while others are totally boring and you wonder why they were even made.
Extended Set Also frequently called Update Set or
Traded Set.
They are sets issued after the original release to update the regular set
with new and traded players.
Facsimile Autograph is an autograph printed on a card to show what the player's actual signature looks like. They are not "real" autographs.
Factory Set are complete sets usually in special boxes produced by the manufacturer. "Hand-Collated Sets" are sets collectors have put together card by card from packs.
