FTC: 1970 Topps Booklets


Not to be confused with "Mambo No. 5," this is Booklet No. 5.  Sorry, folks, probably before your time.  Well, in any case, I always liked the booklet-style items card companies came up with.  I dunno why, just think they are unique and you get to learn more than what you usually find on the back of a card.

  3. I have the entire set of these baseball booklets from 1970 and the "cartoon" like stories on the inside are hilarious, especially 40 years later.

  4. Wow the whole set! That is too cool! Jack, I wonder if you'd have better luck now that more card bloggers are out there.
