Description

1974 Topps is a 660-card set. 1974 marked the first time Topps issued all the cards of its baseball set at the same time in a single series. Also for the first time, factory sets were issued through the JC Penny catalog. Sales were probably disappointing for it would be several years before factory sets were issued again.

After the 1973 season, the San Diego Padres were rumored to be relocating to Washington D.C. Fifteen cards (13 players, the team card, and a Rookie Prospects card) of the Padres were printed either as "San Diego" or "Washington Nat'l League." The latter are the scarcer variety and are denoted in the checklist below.

Each team's manager and his coaches again have a combined card with small pictures of each coach below the larger photo of the team's manager.

The first six cards in the set (1-6) feature Hank Aaron and his illustrious career. Other topical subsets included in the set are League Leaders (201-208), All-Star selections (331-339), Playoffs cards (470-471), World Series cards (472-479), and Rookie Prospects (596-608). The card backs for the All-Stars (331-339) have no statistics, but form a picture puzzle of Bobby Bonds, the 1973 All-Star Game MVP.

The key Rookie Cards in this set are Ken Griffey, Sr., Bucky Dent, Dave Parker, and Dave Winfield (which curiously, does not have a Washington variation).
