1964 Topps stand-up pack?
 
Anyone know how many cards came in a waxpack?

Griffins 08-08-2011 10:29 PM

1 card in the penny pack, 5 cards in the nickel pack.

Thank you Anthony. Any idea if these were printed in one series? Based on the # of cards in the set I would guess so. I'm debating whether to put together a whole set or just pick up the stars/HOF'rs. Love the look of these cards.

!964 Topps Punch Outs
 
Neat set and doable in decent condition. On the penny packs the player can easily be identified within an unopened pack.

I have an uncut Topps proof sheet with edit notations on it I bought from Topps Vault that has 44 of the cards on it

I think they were released in one series, but there are definitely short prints within the set.
Al, assume you have the regular sheet, not the sp sheet?

Short Prinyts
 
Anthony---I have the above described sheet and the set but confess I do not know which cards were short printed. Do you have any idea which players were SPs? If so I can check to see if any are on mine. Mantle is on my sheet

I'm pretty sure they were printed in one series. Topps printed 1960's and 70's cards 264 cards per sheet, here is one half of that sheet, the more commmonly seen 132 card sheet. I'm fairly certain the other half would be identical to these half sheet.

Rows 1 thru 4 are reprinted in rows 9 thru 12. Row 5 is also reprinted in row 8 but upside down, therefore rows 6 and 7 have to be the sp's, includes Billy Williams, Drysdale, Yaz and Willie McCovey off the top of my head.

55 cards printed twice = 110, 22 cards printed once = 22, total = 132

That's it for today's lesson, John

Short Printed cards are:

Jack Baldschun
Norm Cash
Donn Clendenon
Ray Culp
Don Drysdale
Jesse Gonder
Tony Gonzalez
Frank Howard
Don Lock
Jerry Lumpe
Juan Marichal
Ed Matthews
Willie McCovey
Albie Pearson
Ed roebuck
Ron Santo
Warren Sphan
Dick Stuart
Bill White
Billy Williams
Hal Woodeshick
Yaz

Topps made some odd selections of what player to have in the set given it's size. I can't believe they expected the likes of Jerry Lumpe and Don Lock to excite the kids back in the day. It's names like those that make me lean towards just getting the star cards insted of the whole set! ;)

Al - can you post a pic of the proof sheet?

John - nice uncut, I have not seen one before.
