1974 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
One of the more interesting items in Topps 1970's baseball was the almost
certain move of the Padres to Washington. Topps was so sure that they
started printing the Padres cards identifying them as WASHINGTON NATIONALS.
McDonald's founder Ray Kroc saved the Padres for San Diego where they
are now thriving.
Topps had to chang all the Padres' lower series cards, creating many
variations. The 'Wshington Nationals' variations are fairly scarce and
now more in demand with a new team in Washington.
TOP ROOKIEs were Padres great Dave Winfield and Ken Griffey Jr's dad Ken Griffey Sr.

1979 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
Highlights of the 1979 Topps baseball card set are:
* Hall-of-Famer Ozzie Smith's rookie card,
* (2) Bump Wills variations; Rangers and the ERROR Blue Jays,
* Special All-Time Leaders with Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Nolan Ryan...
* Packed as (37) or more cards featured Hall-of-Famers !!!
Given all of the above, the 1979 set is very affordable.
TOP ROOKIES were Hall-of-Famers Eddie Murray, Paul Molitor,
Alan Trammell & Jack Morris.
NOTE: Ozzie Smith is by far the most value card in the set.
Unfortuantely, for some reason, it suffered from poor sheet cutting
and most Ozzie rookies are well off center.

Are sports cards valuable ?
Like all collectibles, over time some sports cards go down in value,
others go up and some can even become very valuable.
Card values are based on many factors:
player popularity, scarcity, condition & collector interest.
A card can be scarce but without demand value may not be great.
Q: What are some ways to collect cards ?
* Complete sets by year & issue
* Cards of your favorite player
* Cards of your favorite team "TEAM SETS"
* Rookie cards
* Hall-of-Famer cards
* I even had a girlfriend that collected Don Mossi (checkout his ears),
players whose last name start with "Z", and the Brett brothers George &
Ken (she had a crush on George).
* "TYPE COLLECTING" (everyone should at least do a little of this !)
"Type Collecting"
is collecting at least one of each different "type" of issue.
On scarcer issues you can add a less expensive common
while on others you can select your favorite player or team.
