1969 Topps Team Posters Checklist & Values
The 1969 Topps Team Posters set was made up of 24 large
11 1/4" x 19 3/4" colorful posters, 1 for each team.
The posters, the largest printed item by Topps to date,
were very colorful picturing 9 or 10 players with their facsimile autographs.
The Posters were sold one per pack at .10 cents each.
Because they were folded many times and usually placed on walls
with tape or pins, high grade posters are very scarce.

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.
