1970/1972/1973 Topps Candy Lids
Checklist & Values
Topps has tried many crazy products, called "test issues".
Mostly distributed in limited areas, test issues were scarce.
"Candy Lids" were little tubs of candy with player's photos on
bottom of a 1-7/8" lid. 10 cents/tub, 24 tubs/box.
Topps first Candy Lids in 1970 and they are very, very hard to
find. They had small photos of Tom Seaver, Carl Yastrzemski & Frank Howard.
1970 Topps Candy Lids were called "Baseball Stars Bubble Gum",
had 24 players, the 1973 Topps Candy Lids had 55.
Topps planned 1972 Candy Lids but never released it, a few proofs do exist.
Topps 1973 Pinups & Comics share many of the same photos.

1948-1949 Leaf Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values
... Babe Ruth ... Joe DiMaggio ... Honus Wagner ... Jackie Robinson ...
... Ted Williams ... Stan Musial ... Satchel Paige ... Warren Spahn ...
Man was the 1948-1949 Leaf baseball set PACKED !!!
The set was small in numbers and size with only (98) 2-3/8" by 2-7/8"
cards. With only 98 cards, the set was "skip-numbered" with card numbers
from 1 thru 168. Likely an attempt to force collectors to keep buying packs
looking for their missing cards. (49) cards are considered "Short Prints"
and there is one variation card #136: Full Sleeve/Short Sleeve (error)

Autographed 1961 Topps Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values
Following autographs have auction house LOA's (Letter of Authenticity) from
hobby's top vintage card authenticators for auction houses PSA/DNA & James Spence !!!
The 1961 Topps baseball card set (#1-#598) only had 587 cards
because of missing numbers. Also there are 2 cards #463
(#463 Braves Team card was to be card #426).
Ugh !!! The 1961 Topps capless players !!!
Picture your grand-dad. Without a cap. Life was obviously much tougher
back then. Baseball expansion created the problem.
Los Angeles Angels added, Washington Senators became Minnesota Twins,
and Washington got a new Senators franchise.
The autographs actually make the "capless" cards more attractive !!!
