Does anyone know what this is or if it has any value? Looks like a set of 1979 Topps team cards but all in one sheet. No staple holes like it was attached to a book or magazine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Tony

This is a Topps Team Checklist sheet, which was issued directly from Topps as a mail-in promo. I believe they were issued from at least 1977-80.

That's the mail in team checklist sheet advertised on some wrappers. Pretty neat, I have a few cards cut from one, but not any full sheets. No idea on value.

Topps used to have a mail offer for the checklist sheets which were on thinner stock than the regular set. In the mid-70's I believe they were sent to members of the short-lived Topps Collectors Club.

1975 was the first year for this type of checklist sheet. 1973 and 1974 had the blue and red checklist sets, respectively.

Now that I know what it's called, I looked it up on ebay and saw some ridiculous prices (like $30 for hand cut and slabbed cards & $80 for a 6 team sheet). At those prices, this should be worth like a million dollars, right? :D
Thanks for the info everyone, I'm going to offer it up for sale so if anyone is interested, let me know.

I have found team card sheets available from 1975-1981 showing the team photos and then the 82 Topps Team leaders also came in sheet form. if they continued past 82, i have not seen the sheets. They also know Topps did Football sheets for a time as well, as I actually ordered 1-2 years myself as a kid.

I have some of the full sheets . I know I have 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980. I don't remember if I have others. Any idea on value? I see that some of the cut graded copies have sold for "decent" money.
