Welcome To 1965 Topps Baseball Cards
11111111The 1965 Topps set was made up of 598 cards which each measured 2 1 by 3 1 in dimensions.1 The set was released in a number of sets which were each released at different times throughout the year, with probable short printing of the final series.1 They were sold in 5 and 1 cent wax packs and this was the last year Topps sold 1 cent wax packs.1 On the front of the card is a player's photograph or portrait with a simple frame around it.1 At the lower left corner of each card is a pennant shaped logo with the player's team name and team symbols.1 This pennant is set against a colored lower name panel with the player's name printed in white and their field position printed in black.
On the back of the card in the upper left corner is a baseball logo with the word Topps printed in it as well the card number.1 Below that is a short write-up about the player and a cartoon panel with a charactiture of the player.1 Then below that is the player's bio and stats info.1 On rookie cards, the back is divided into 2 split sections.
The rookie cards to look for in this set are the Joe Morgan #16, the #477 Steve Carlton, the #526 Jim Hunter, the #581 Tony Perez, and the #282 Masanori Murkami who was the first big league player to come form Japan.1 The other rookies listed wall went on to become HOF'ers.1 There are some real treasures in terms of non-rookie individual player's cards in the set as well.1 The Mantle, Mays, Aaron, Clemente, Pete Rose, and Koufax are some of the key cards of the deck.
There are a few known error cards associated with this set but none of them add any real value.1 The first 12 cards of the set, the league leader cards, are very desirable.1 #3 features the exciting lineup of Mantle, Killebrew, and Boog Powell, the 3 AL HR leaders.1 Cards 132-139 are the World Series subset and the Casey Stengel and Yaz cards are tremendous standouts as well.
This is one of the easiest sets to acquire every card for and commons from this set are especially abundant.1 Even high PSA cards are fairly easy to come by.1 You'll also want to search for the many decals, iron ons and giveaways which were distributed in packs of these cards.1 All in all, this set is great for collectors who want to own high condition cards of many of the most legendary players of the 1960's.
