Description
1980 Burger King Pitch, Hit, & Run is a 34-card set issued as part of a promotion with Burger King. Collectors would receive a cellophane-wrapped pack of three cards plus one un-numbered checklist with the purchase of a large order of french fries. Like previous Topps Burger King sets, the design is identical to that of the 1980 Topps set, with the exception of a Burger King logo in the upper-left corner on the front. The backs are printed in red ink and have a "Pitch, Hit, & Run" logo, but are otherwise similar to the '80 Topps set.
This was the fourth, and final, year Topps produced baseball cards for Burger King; and was the only set that was (with the exception of the Greater Philadelphia area) distributed nationally. In lieu of the national Pitch, Hit, & Run set, a separate 1980 Topps Burger King Phillies 23-card Phillies team set was distributed to Burger King's in the Philadelphia region.
Cards 1-11 are pitchers, 12-22 are hitters, and 23-33 are runners. Within each subgroup, the players are numbered corresponding to the alphabetical order of their names. Those cards marked by an asterisk in the checklist contain a different photo from that found in the regularly issued Topps series.
Distribution
A pack of three cards plus one un-numbered checklist per pack. One pack available with the purchase of a large order of french fries.
