Thanks guys. John, the Adderley is from 1968 Topps. Nice Grange and Bednarik.

Thanks Adam. So it looks like the Packers and Raiders got special treatment in that set?

Not sure, but it looks that way, at least for the Packers. I'm not completly up to speed on the 1968's as I'm new to vintage football.

Yes Raiders got that special background as well in 68T

The Super Bowl II teams. Too bad they didn't do it across the board, would've made for a really nice set - reminiscent of the 55 AA backgrounds.

+1

Topps did these special cards for the Super Bowl teams which was a nice touch.

My bet is they didn't do this design for the entire set because of the extra cost and Topps was very cost conscious. Until serious competition showed up in the late 80s / early 90s Topps didn't get creative and really take their cards to the next level.
