1967 Topps Film
 
Has anyone ever seen this? Topps put it on YouTube a couple weeks ago.

Little Susie was fanning an assortment of '67 hi numbers, and I kept yelling at the kids to stop throwing them on the ground!

Did they wrap some '67s in '66 wrappers, or was that just some stock footage from the previous year?

If only there was a movie where the focus was on the making of cards, not gum!

It was shared a lot in vintage card groups on FB. I found it amusing - kid clearly has '67 packs at the candy store, and is flipping them on the ground while his sister looks to have been the one likely to have nice cards 50+ years later. In the factory scenes, they show '67 cards but '66 wrappers. I'm guessing it was pieced together over a couple of years.

Neat, but I could have done with more about the cards and less about the bubble gum. I guess Topps back in the day still considered the gum their premiere product...:p
