1969 Topps Football Four-in-One |
Thru the late 1960's, early 1970's, Topps continued to try new
things as test issues and inserts. 1969 was no different and
along came the 1969 Topps Football Four-in-Ones. Each card was a
perforated panel of (4) mini-cards. Special mini-card albums were
also issued as inserts to hold the mini-cards. Each album had room
for a complete team set of (10) mini-cards. 
There was one variation in which print color and background on
Bill Triplett's and Charlie Johnson's mini-cards varied.
Interestingly, a few of the players on these mini-cards never
appeared on their own regular card . 
1960 Leaf Baseball Cards |
The 1960 Leaf baseball card set featured 144 regular-sized high-gloss
photo quality cards. Back then Topps had a monopoly on baseball cards
packaged with gum or candy so Leaf packaged their cards with marbles.
The marbles were from Sports Novelties Inc. and the cards, called
1960 Leaf, bear copyrights by Sports Novelties Inc. 
1975 O-Pee-Chee (OPC) Baseball |
