1966 Topps Venezuelan

Continuing with even-numbered years only, the next Topps Venezuelan set was 1966. This was another 370-card set matching the first 4 series. The backs are the only distinguishing feature – they are noticeably darker.

Hall of famers (29): Willie Mays, Phil Niekro, Jim Hunter, Billy Herman MG, Mickey Mantle, Carl Yastrzemski, Tony Perez, Red Schoendienst, Sandy Koufax, Ernie Banks, Walter Alston MG, Harmon Killebrew, Lou Brock, Jim Palmer, Orlando Cepeda, Whitey Ford, Joe Morgan, Eddie Mathews, Bill Mazeroski, Willie Stargell, Don Sutton, Roberto Clemente, Frank Robinson, Bob Gibson, Hank Aaron (subset only), Willie McCovey (subset), Billy Williams (subset), Juan Marichal (subset), Don Drysdale (subset)

Ford C. Frick award winner Bob Uecker also has a card in this set.

thank you, i would have never even thought of that. guess my Mick is a US-issue, as the "pink" on the back isnt nearly as dark as some of the photos i've seen........

Mike,

Send me a picture or post one if you want a second set of eyes on it.
