Topps Bazooka 1956-1958
Team Felt Patches


Often called Bazooka Joe Emblems, Big League Emblems or Topps Felts, (6) different Bazooka 5-inch team emblem patches were available through a mail-in redemption found in 1956-1958 Topps Baseball cards. The 1958 patches have "My Favorite Team" written around the outer Ring. You sent in a Blony or Bazooka bubble gum wrapper and a SASE to receive your 1958 Major League Team Emblem. The Team Emblems came with a letter signed by Bazooka Joe & Archie.

In 2007 Topps issued a retro set of the 1958 felt patches with a Trademark (TM or "R") following the team name.

Checklist & Cards


Perfect for the team collector!
Marking the 50th anniversary of its 1954 baseball card set, Topps released this reprint edition that mirrored thier original set with some differences.
* Cards were in today's standard 2-1/2 by 3-1/2 size
* Cards were on thin glossy stock rather.
* Topps added (8) cards to the set making up for some of the superstars missed in the original, including Roberto Clemente, Harmon Killebrew pre-rookies.
* Since Upper Deck had exclusive rights to Ted Williams, the set was missing both of his cards (#1,#250).
Upper Deck issued 1954 Archives cards for Mickey Mantle and both missing Ted Williams cards as scarce inserts in their 1994 packs.
* Topps also issued a scarcer gold parallel set with gold facsimile autographs and team logos. Gold cards were inserted only 1 per pack.

A great way to experience the 1954 Topps set and it's huge rookies like Hank Aaron, Al Kaline and Ernie Banks without spending $20,000 !!!

Baseball card collecting terms (part B)

Bazooka Bazooka Bubble Gum put baseball cards on the back of their boxes from 1959 thru 1971. Complete boxes and panels can get extremely costly. Most kids back then could not afford complete boxes of bubble gum at one making Bazooka cards quite scarce. I actually don't recall ever obtaining a Bazooka card directly from a box as a kid. Do you ???

Black Sox Scandal Name given to the the most famous scandal in baseball history after the 1919 Chicago White Sox versus the Cincinatti Reds World Series when 8 White Sox players were accused of throwing the series. Details have remained somewhat unclear. The players were acquitted of criminal charges but 8 players still received a lifetime ban from professional baseball including the All-Time great "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.

Blank-Back a card in which nothing is printed on the back. These cards are usually not in packs and are either "PROOF ISSUES" or were removed from the factory in some way.

Blanket a term used for collectibles in the 1910's made of fabric .

Border is the part of the card that surrounds the photo or image.

Bowman was a card manufacturer in the 1940's and 1950's that was bought out by Topps. In 1989 Topps started issuing cards using the Bowman brand.

Break a term used to indicate the opening of a set, pack, box or case.

Break Value is the total book value of each card added up individually. The break value of a set is usually way, way more than the value of the complete set.
