1952,1953,1954,1955 Red Man TOBACCO
Checklist & Values


Tobacco cards were instrumental in the start of the baseball card industry but were pretty much unheard of since 1920. That is until RED MAN TOBACCO got in the game issuing baseball cards in 1952, 1953, 1954 & 1955.

For just 20 cents you got a pouch of Red Man tobacco and one awesome 3-1/2 x 4 inch baseball card with it's tab (3-1/2 x 3-5/8 without). Exchange FIFTY tabs and you got one free big league style felt baseball cap of your favorite team. This made cards with tabs much, much harder to find and values 2 to 10 times higher.

25 players from each league were selected by "Sporting News" editor J.G. Taylor Spink. A Player's artwork with different backgrounds was used year after year. If a player changed teams, new team name & logo were painted over the old one. To determine the year, just subtract 1 from the expiration date on back of the card. The 1954 set had four variations.

Vintage 1975 Topps card

1975 Topps Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values


The first think you notice about Topps 1975 baseball cards is their very colorful and thinck borders, many say TOO colorful, TOO thick. Anyway, this set doesn't show up on too many best designed baseball card lists.

But what it lacked in design, it made up in other ways. First was the AWESOME ROOKIE cards for Hall-of-Famers George Brett, Robin Yount, Jim Rice, Fred Lynn and Gary Carter.

Then there was the SUPER POPULAR MVP subset. One of my favorite Topps subsets, there were now many great cards picturing players like Mickey Mantle & Willie Mays.

It didn't stop there. There were several Record Breaker cards featuring greats like Hank Aaron & Nolan Ryan. Plus the always loved League Leaders cards and even more .

AND THE BEST PART --- 1975 Topps Minis !!! Yes, a whole new set, exactly the same, but a slightly smaller size !!!

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.
