1974 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
One of the more interesting items in Topps 1970's baseball was the almost
certain move of the Padres to Washington. Topps was so sure that they
started printing the Padres cards identifying them as WASHINGTON NATIONALS.
McDonald's founder Ray Kroc saved the Padres for San Diego where they
are now thriving.
Topps had to chang all the Padres' lower series cards, creating many
variations. The 'Wshington Nationals' variations are fairly scarce and
now more in demand with a new team in Washington.
TOP ROOKIEs were Padres great Dave Winfield and Ken Griffey Jr's dad Ken Griffey Sr.

Protecting and Storing your Card Collection
There are many different ways to protect, organize and store your sports cards.
Soft Sleeves
also called "penny sleeves" are the most basic protection for your cards.
Made of thin plastic, they come in packs of 100 and are very inexpensive.
Top Loads
are rigid plastic holders and a step up in protection over "soft sleeves".
Called top-loads because you place the card thru a thin opening at the top.
They come in many sizes for regular cards upto 8-1/2 x 11 for magazines and
even larger.
Screw-Down Acrylic Holders
These are sometimes used for better, more expensive cards. Small screws hold
two pieces of clear acrylic together. In a variety of sizes and thickness
that not only protect the card but can funciton as a paper weight or display
item.
There are also Single-Screw Screw-Downs that use only 1 screw to seal the holder.
They are easier to use and provide the same type of protectionas regular screwdowns
and they are also much less expensive costing as little as .30 in quantity
while 1 inch or 2 inch acrylic screw-downs can cost upto several dollars.
