CMAS = Connie Mack All Stars. Topps packaged, if memory serves, one CMAS card with two panels of redbacks, along with a bar of caramel candy wrapped in a pack that usually sold for a nickel. In a number of different press runs, team cards were also included - Dave Hornish has an excellent and highly detailed survey of these issues and their packaging at his blog:

Recalling those caramel bars, I feel lucky to still have my teeth
