Here is mine from the 70's Back markings are "iTi TOPPS INTERNATIONAL JAPAN" I could be wrong but this was also with the bazooka wrappers

That’s great. I love seeing the actual premium prizes !

Here are some Topps Sports Club items. Sorry for the Hockey but I thought it was cool to show a near complete packet as the baseball ones I found recently only had the team sheet. I do not know why the hockey one was better preserved.
Al, great plaque! I have always been intrigued by the mystery behind it. All of the other items shown are very cool too. Alan |
I remember the team checklist offers, the thing I noticed is the stock is white rather than the gray stock from the cards of that period.

I need the 76 and 77 team baseball checklist send ins and I will have the complete run from 74 to 82.
Anyone have either, I am interested. |
Do not have duplicates but did that same run---- Here is 76&77. But the run should include 73, right ?

Topps did not do a single sheet mail offer in 73. First started with single sheets in 74.
Lets put it this way, I have never seen a single sheet of team checklists for 73. And if you have a 73 single sheet, please upload picture. I have never seen one. Regards, |
You are likely right. In 73 and 74 checklists with the autos were both pack inserts and send away items. In 73 the send aways may have all been pre cut
|
Were the blue team checklist autographs cards the mail-ins from 1973?

1974 Team Checklists

There was an offer in 1974 for the team checklists and it was delivered in uncut sheet form. Interestingly, 1974 was the only year in which the uncut premium offer was printed on the same stock as the cards found in packs.

1973 Team Checklists

Even though the 1973 wrapper offer seems to suggest you'd get the checklists pre-cut, there is this example of the checklists in uncut form. Either this is what you received by mail, or it was a factory sheet from which pack inserts were cut - although I would imagine those would have been the typical 11x12 sheets. Also, this sheet and the 1974 sheet have a factory fold down the center, so I'm thinking each was the mail order premium.

WOW!!!
I have not seen a 73 single checklist sheet. But 73 and 74 are laid out different for sure. So now I have to see if I can find a 73 sheet. I still think they were cut and then delivered. But that is based on empirical evidence at this point. Thanks for that picture. I am drooling now....and I have set an eBay search too! Regards, |
I had "1973 Topps uncut" in my eBay saved searches for a couple years and finally this showed up - probably 2 years ago now. There was a "best offer" option available, and I made what I thought was a reasonable first try, which was accepted. Admittedly the 1973 sheet is in rough shape - you can almost see daylight through the fold line.
For the 1974, I initially purchased a group of 3 before realizing they were all factory errors - looking at the photos here, those first 3 have 2 columns headed by Royals checklists, and none of the Red Sox column of checklists. Happy to send out copies if anyone would like one as a curiosity. Free of charge. If was a kid in 1974 I would have been really irritated after waiting 6-8 weeks. Send me a message if you'd like one. |

Per request - here are images of the 1974 "error" uncut checklists....I've received one request for one of my 3 samples. That leaves me with 2 left if anyone wants one.
