1962 Topps Football Bucks
The 1962 Topps Football Bucks resembled U.S. currency and measured
1 1/4" x 4 1/4". But ... instead of Abe Lincoln staring at you,
it could be Fran Tarkenton !!!
Drawings of the player's home parks along with brief write-ups
appeared on the front. The backs included team and league logos.
Printing was done with black and green ink on off-white
(very thin) paper stock. Bucks are typically found with a fold crease
in the middle as they were inserted in packs in that manner.
The 1962 Topps Bucks were inserts in wax packs of the 1962 Topps regular
issue football cards. Player selection was super and the featured ROOKIES
of Fran Tarkenton and Mike Ditka !!! Also numerous other Hall-of-Famers
including JIM BROWN, BART STARR, Y.A. Tittle, Johnny Unitas, Lou Groza
and other greats !!!
