Keep in mind also that Topps was NOT really a Pennsylvania company. They did move their warehouses and printing facilities to PA in the mid-Sixties, but they were essentially a Brooklyn-based company. I believe they kept their offices in NYC after the Sixties, although after the original family sold the business, it's possible they moved elsewhere. Still, in terms of its founding and growth as a confectionary giant, Topps was NY, not PA.
