Thanks Howard-I've always been amazed there was a 20 and 25 count each year, it seems like such a small difference!
I am thinking more and more that Clemente poster sticker was from an in-house Topps mockup for a management pitch and it would not surprise me one bit if it was for what became Action All Star Stickers. Last edited by toppcat; 05-07-2014 at 05:12 PM.

quite possible or
I was thinking it was also possible that it was a precursor to the 1967 Pirate/ red sox sticker issue. Mock up as opposed to test seems right as I have not seen nor heard of another one existing. I have also asked some of the most advanced collectors and dealers who too have not seen another. In any case a true and coveted gem in my collection - comes with a great back story too - A guy I befriended through a shared love of Clemente who I got to know when I did shows in Pittsburgh found it for me!
Larry enlightened me about the different size Bazooka boxes. The information has kept the collecting candle flickering for me as I have almost every other known Clemente item that I want. Highly interesting to me is I have owned or own both size Clemente Bazooka boxes from 1962, 1963 and 1967 - '63 and '67 being incredibly tough boxes in any size, yet I have never seen a 25 piece box for 1964, 1965 or 1966 - '65 and '66 being 2 of the "easiest" (of the 20 piece variation) to find. As far as I know there was only 1 size in 1968 and 1971. Dave, do you own any complete 1960 boxes? -Howard

1960 Topps Baseball Salesman Sample
I posted a few days back, asking if anyone has ever seen this particular Salesman Sample from 1960, which I own? I was unable to upload a photo at the time, but now I can, so here it is:

Howard-I don't have any intact boxes and only a couple of panels are in my type run right now. I am just now getting serious about Bazooka items, I really like how the intact panels look.
Adam-agree 100% with your assessment!
