1964/1965 Challenge the Yankees

Baseball Board Game

"Challenge The Yankees" was a popular baseball board game from Hasbro in 1964 & 1965.
(50) player cards: (25) Yankees and (25) All-Star opponents, made the game a treasure trove for collectors. 4" x 5-1/2" cards came in blank-backed perforated sheets on a fairly fragile paper stock.

The game also had dice, baseball diamond game board, play cards, pegs to move around bases, strategy cards...
1964/1965 cards are nearly the same with a stat line the only way to distinguish. A couple cards even have same stats so no way to tell them apart.

Vintage Topps 1956 Baseball Cards
Checklist & Prices

1956 Topps were slightly larger (3-3/4" by 2 5/8") horizontal cards similar to 1955 Topps cards, some even sharing portraits with 1954 and 1955 Topps cards. Team cards & checklists appeared for the first time in 1956.
With Bowman gone, after missing the last 3 years, Mickey Mantle was back !!! A fun & simple set, 1956 Topps had no high numbers or expensive rookies but for serious 1956 collectors, there are over 200 variations. Most variations deal with card stock (gray or white back). For #101-180 gray appears to outnumber white about 9-to-1. Many team cards had 2 or 3 variations with team names Left, Center or Right.

There are 2 great cards: #31 Hank Aaron which actually pictures Willie Mays sliding home and #135 Mickey Mantle. Mantle shown leaping high into the stands robbing a home run ! Artist did a great job showing Mantle making the catch ! BUT ... Mantle looked great leaping but the ball flew over his glove.
The 1956 Topps Pins used same portrait photos as the cards.
