Jeff, thanks for doing a scan for each year.

Back at the start of this thread in 2014 I stated the '76 set was my personal favorite because it was the first year I started collecting football cards a lot.

But, the more I see cards from 1975, the more I like it as it has so many game action shots including my favorite O.J. card of his career.

The ONLY thing I did not like about 1970's Topps Football. No team logos which meant lots of air brushing.

1970 is my favorite of not just the decade, but of all time.

I like them in order of year tho 71 then 70, 72, 73 etc.

Hmmm... It says "with 528 cards, it more than doubled the 1972 product"... The 72 set has 351 cards. Is my math off?

My bet is they forgot about the high numbers in '72.
