![]() 1972 Topps FootballThe 1972 Topps Football set contained (351) cards, and came in (3) series. The 3rd series high numbers (#264 to #351) are perhaps the scarcest regular football cards Topps ever made.The set was jam packed with rookies including: Roger Staubach, John Riggins, Archie Manning, Lyle Alzado, Charlie Joyner, Ted Hendricks), Jim Plunkett...
Perhaps the most expensive card in the set is Joe Namath's
Pro Action card, one of the very, very scarce 3rd series high #s.

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.
