Which count? Honestly curious.
Even if we calculate the same number of both varieties of wax (with game cards and without) - which just doesn't seem supported by the evidence - we're looking at a total of between 180-200K of each card in wax alone.
And yes - game cards were only in wax. In addition to the cellos and rack and vending, there were super cellos, mini K-mart and Quirt packs, and those 80-card blister packs they did that year.
I have a distinct memory that in their 1980 "Year in Pictures" issue, Life had an image of the 1980 George Brett with a statement of how many Topps printed - I may have that issue and will dig for it.
