I understand there is a printer in Venezuela that was/is still printing the Venezuelan Topps cards and aging them. Not just the 67's but all years. I think there was even a thread on here about it warning people about the Venezuelan eBay seller that was peddling them.

Considering the current political and social climate over there, I don't think anyone is printing fakes today, nor have I heard of anything like that in the past.

There is evidence of packs and an album like other years. Perhaps like so many of the test issues of the era, Topps was testing some new ideas with the set. In all cases (even if it wasn't issued by Topps) the 67 Venezuelans are a BEAST to collect. It is certainly convenient (if it's not Topps - then I don't choose to collect it) to make a case for it not being a Topps product.

I don't think there would be much Topps could do if someone in Venezuela released a set that looked similar to Topps set. Here in this thread someone posted that the '67 set isn't listed as a Topps set; if I remember correctly.

Two questions. Are you interested in selling it and for how much? As long as there's no paper loss on the front condition doesn't matter to me. Message me with a number. :)

If anyone here is interested, I put up a list on the BST of Venezuelan dupes I have for trade from 1967 MLB, 1964, and 1970 Ovenca.

I can't help but to think you're a sadist. Only a sadist would try to collect the '67 VZ set. :D

I wish you good luck, though. I have a '67 Carty, but I didn't see it on your needs list. If you need it send me a message and we can work something out.

I figured as much. If it ever is, let me know. :)

I'm a big fan of Mathews. I know Ryan already has one, but I'm happy to add this one to my collection.

My 2nd 64 Venz McCovey. Have his regular card too.

Dick/Richie Allen was no slouch! ROY in 64, MVP in 72, 8-time All Star, six 30+ HR seasons. Finished his career with .292 batting average and 351 HRs. Career OPS .912

If you haven't yet, please check out my 64 Venz registry. Only 15 cards so far (I have a Gilliam I need to sub), but loaded with HOFers and stars:
