Below are short bits & pieces on sportscard & baseball trading card collecting.
Please wander around the website for more info, prices, values & images
on vintage baseball, football, basketball, hockey, sport and non-sports cards.
1974 Topps & Parker Brothers Football
In 1974, along with cards in wax packs, Topps also issued the football
cards used in Parker Brothers' "Pro Draft" board game. The (50) Parker Brothers
cards are skip numbered from the 1st 132 Topps cards and are all
offensive players, mostly from the skill positions.
Most Parker Brothers cards are similar to the ones from packs except on the back
where most Parker Brothers cards had 1972 stats instead of 1973 and (2)* rather
than (1)* in the copyright line. BUT NOTE: Some regular Topps cards have
both * and ** --- It's complicated!
Six of the cards have totally different designs; three All-Pros and three with
horizontal designs that were changed to vertical to match the rest of the cards.
Team checklist cards were randomly included in the Topps wax packs.
TOP ROOKIES: Joe DeLamielleure, Ray Guy, Bert Jones, Harold Carmichael,
John Matuszak, Ahmad Rashad, Chuck Foreman, John Hannah and actor Ed Marinaro.

1933 Goudey Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
1933 Goudey baseball cards were issued during the worst part of
The Great Depression. The set ended up at 240 cards (239 printed
in 1933 and one in 1934). In an effort to attract collectors,
several of the games top players were honored with multiple cards
including "The Great Bambino" who appeared on 4 different cards.
The Babe was once asked why he made more than the President of the
United States, the Babe answered simply: "I had a better year than he did."
The Elusive Nap Lajoie
One of the most important facts regarding the 1933 Goudey set was their
infamous marketing ploy. Goudey took "marketing" to a whole new level
to keep people buying packs by never issuing card #106. Collectors wrote
the Goudey Card Company complaining. They were rewarded with Goudey
sending them the un-issued card #106 (Nap Lajoie) in 1934.

1956 Topps Pins Checklist & Values
WOW ! Few issues compare to the 1956 Topps Pins set. The colorful and
attractive 1-1/8" diameter pins were packaged with bubble gum
and featured a color photo of player on front with a pin clasp on back.
Many of the images for pins are the same as on the 1956 Topps cards.
If you collect 1956 Topps cards than YOU MUST add at least one of these
1956 Topps Pin to your collection.
Packed with stars (no Mickey Mantle), the 1956 Topps Pins set
also had a few scarcities such as Chuck Stobbs, Hector Lopez &
Chuck Diering.
In the end, collectors of the day preferred cards to pins and Topps cut back
the 1956 Topps Pin set from a planned 90 pins to just 60.

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.
