Looking for the other 9 of these if anyone has any leads.

I've already got Brett and Yount, so Ryan was a logical next step.

I'm not building the '75 Topps set. I'm really not. (I keep telling myself this...)

I've seen these before - what exactly are these?

Another card to add to my Frank Howard collection.

I like the sig and the tag line.

There was a sweepstakes that was offered in 1971. These are the winners of that sweepstakes. I never knew about any of this during 71 when I collected that set. It was only here, decades later, that I learned of them.

Cheers,

Do you happen to know if it was a wrapper offer or otherwise associated with any of the 1971 products sold in stores? I am compiling as much information I can about that sort of thing and would love to know how these were offered.

From what I recall here, it was a form that the store selling the topps cards provided the kids buying the cards. They filled it out and sent it in. I get sketchy about the details real fast after that. Sorry.

There is a thread here on these.

Found it.

This was also around the time I found out the Bowie Kuhn had a card too that was produced in 69 I believe.

Thanks All!
