Do you happen to know if it was a wrapper offer or otherwise associated with any of the 1971 products sold in stores? I am compiling as much information I can about that sort of thing and would love to know how these were offered.

From what I recall here, it was a form that the store selling the topps cards provided the kids buying the cards. They filled it out and sent it in. I get sketchy about the details real fast after that. Sorry.

There is a thread here on these.

Found it.

This was also around the time I found out the Bowie Kuhn had a card too that was produced in 69 I believe.

Took me ages to finally get pics of these and load them onto a photo hosting site. Please excuse the lighting glare in some pics.

I picked these up near the 1st of the year, or a few months prior, but I *DID* just get some back from SGC.
The Mantle/Aaron batting foes is very clean with great color and no snow which is often a problem on this one.

The Hank Aaron Home Run King AUTO was a bit of a grail card for me.
I watched Ebay for several years until the right centered one came up.

This was the 3rd card I received in trade I made over the weekend. Unsure about it as I’d rather have a 1953-54 Bowman or 1955 Topps Snider. Nonetheless I’m happy to have pickups finally..
