"news article" on the back. The cards showcase some of the baseball's most
interesting highlights in it's first 100 years. The 80 card 1961 Nu card Scoops
set is numbered from 401-480.

1955 Topps Double-Headers (Doubleheaders) Baseball Cards Set checklist/info

Without a doubt my FAVORITE SET - PERIOD. Regular issue, test issues,
inserts ... whatever ... this is # 1 !!!
Similar to the early 1900's Mecca Double Folders, these colorful
2-1/16" x 4-7/8" cards are actually 2-cards-in-1 !
Perforated in the center, you can fold to create cards of 2
different players. Unperforated 1955 Topps DoubleHeaders exist.
All 132 players (66 cards) in the 1955 Topps DoubleHeaders set were also in
the regular 1955 Topps set, with the same action image.
NOTE: Laid side-by-side the cards form spectacular scenes
from actual stadiums !!!
Old-timers - can you identify the stadiums ?
ROOKIES:
Harmon Killebrew, Hal Newhouser
STARS:
Ted Williams, Hank Aaron, Jackie Robinson ...
The Best !!!

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 !!!

Baseball card collecting terms (part B)
Bazooka Bazooka Bubble Gum put baseball cards on the back of their
boxes from 1959 thru 1971. Complete boxes and panels can get extremely costly.
Most kids back then could not afford complete boxes of bubble gum at one
making Bazooka cards quite scarce. I actually don't recall ever obtaining
a Bazooka card directly from a box as a kid. Do you ???
Black Sox Scandal Name given to the the most famous scandal in
baseball history after the 1919 Chicago White Sox versus the Cincinatti Reds
World Series when 8 White Sox players were accused of throwing the series.
Details have remained somewhat unclear. The players were acquitted of
criminal charges but 8 players still received a lifetime ban from
professional baseball including the All-Time great "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.
Blank-Back a card in which nothing is printed on the back.
These cards are usually not in packs and are either "PROOF ISSUES" or
were removed from the factory in some way.
Blanket a term used for collectibles in the 1910's made of fabric .
Border is the part of the card that surrounds the photo or image.
Bowman was a card manufacturer in the 1940's and 1950's that was
bought out by Topps. In 1989 Topps started issuing cards using the Bowman
brand.
Break a term used to indicate the opening of a set, pack, box or case.
Break Value is the total book value of each card added up individually.
The break value of a set is usually way, way more than the value of the complete set.
