Kind of a random thought, but you would think that since football lagged behind baseball in the late 50's & early 60's in popularity, there would be more of the football samples in comparison to baseball. My rationale is that topps would need to push the product a little harder than their baseball cards. Also, I've seen all years, but NEVER have I seen a 1962 salesman sample. Do they exist? I also remember there was an auction ( might have been Robert Edwards ) that had like 50 of the 1964 samples in one lot. Surprised these haven't circulated a little better, as you figure that if someone had 30+ of the same sample, they would want to sell some...
