Description

In 1975 Light Impressions of Rochester, NY, in association with Topps, issued a 135-card set of famous photographers, art critics, museum curators and art historians.

According to a December, 1975 Sports Illustrated article, the cards were distributed to art galleries and museums and sold in 10-card cellophane packs (with a stick of Topps gum) for $1. Only 3000 copies of each card were produced. While the set is virtually unknown amongst sports card collectors, these cards are still actively collected and traded by art aficionados.

The set was the brainchild of photographer Mike Mandel who traveled around the U.S. with baseball equipment and uniforms. The cards are simple black-and-white shots featuring the subjects in various baseball-related poses. Each subject was given full leeway to write whatever they wanted on the back.

In early 2010, a full set was sold at auction for $5675.
