When I was collecting as a kid in the 50s and early 60s I lived in St Louis and was a Cardinals fan. I often wished Topps would issue cards of all the Cardinal players on the team in a given year. Starting in 2002 and continuing through 2005 Topps did issue sets that tended to include virtually every player on each team. The first Topps total set in 2002 , and the one in 2003, were 990 cards. In 2004 the set dropped to 880 and to 770 in 2005. They were then discontinued. I guess there was little demand for such large sets with so many commons. I do have them all and they take up some space
