1965 Topps Wrappers
 
I'm starting to outline my needs for a 1965 master set, and was wondering whether a wrapper variation exists advertising the transfer inserts - I know the "Top Stars", 'Embossed" and 1-cent variations, but I haven't been able to learn if there was another for the transfers.

Thanks!

Never mind - just found an image of one with the transfers - couldn't find a way to delete this thread though.

You may already be aware of this but there were 2 variations of the "Top Stars" wrapper. One says " ALL THE TOP MAJOR LEAGUE STARS" and the other has "TOP MAJOR LEAGUE STARS" in a larger font.

Here is pretty rare box topper from 1965 advertising the transfers. Topps actual called them “Baseball Press On”. I have never seen another on of these box toppers. Mantle,Koufax and Boyer are shown

Awesome piece but I have to say Topps was optimistic about where these would be applied!

...and about how large they were!
