1972 Manama Official Postage Stamps
These beautiful official government issued postage stamps from
Manama were made of a plastic like material and used a an advanced
printing technique to show multiple images as the card was moved.
This technique was later used on a baseball card issue called
"Sportflics".
Each of these postage stamps pictured 2 different players as the
stamp was titled. There were 8 different stamps issued, 4 with
American player-combos and 4 with Japanese player-combos.
A special stamp picturing BABE RUTH alongside the famous
Yankees "MURDERS ROW" was also issued and appears to be
significantly scarcer than the others.

1969 Topps Stamps Checklist & Values
Following stints as inserts in 1961 and 1962,
stamps finally arrived with their own issue in 1969 !
A nickel for a 12-stamp strip plus a mini album !!!
The 1969 Topps Stamps set contained (240) 1x1-7/16 inch unnumbered stamps
with player's photo and name,team & position inside a colored banner.
The stamps were released in both horizontal (2 rows of 6) & vertical (2 columns of 6).
1969 Topps Stamps are often confused with Topps' 1974 issue.
The 1974 Stamps have ovals rather than banners at bottom and
came only in horizontal 12-stamp panels.
To store the stamps, Topps issued a set of 24 mini albums,
one for each team. The booklets were the same size as a baseball card
and held a complete 10-stamp team set.
More fun for kids, the back cover had facsimile autographs of
all the players in the team set. The design is nearly identical to the
Topps 1969 football 4-in-1 stamp booklets.
The 1969 Topps Stamps set is packed with stars like Pete Rose and
tons of Hall-of-Famers including MICKEY MANTLE, Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente
& many more !!!

Baseball, Football, Basketball & Hockey Memorabilia Cards
It's cool to have a card of your favorite player.
It's even cooler to have your favorite player's jersey or bat.
Well just think how cool it is to have a card of your favorite player
embedded with a piece of his bat or jersey that he used in a real major league game !!!
That's the concept that Upper Deck dazzled the hobby with in 1996. Ever since the
hobby has been in love with Game-Used memorabilia cards and they have become a
staple of sportscard collecting. Originally they were very scarce inserts with
less than 1 every few boxes. Now these insert cards are so popular that
many products include one in every pack.
Be sure you visit our Game-Used card section with nearly 1,000 available at
discount prices.
