1972 Topps

From BaseballCardPedia.com


Description

1972 Topps is a 787-card set distributed in six series. '72 Topps set contained the most cards ever for a Topps set to that point in time. Features appearing for the first time were "Boyhood Photos" (341-348/491-498), Awards and Trophy cards (621-626), "In Action" (distributed throughout the set), and "Traded Cards" (751-757). Other subsets included League Leaders (85-96), Playoffs cards (221-222), and World Series cards (223-230). The Series Six In Action cards form pictures of Tom Seaver and Tony Oliva.

Dubbed by many as the "psychedelic tombstones," the design is one of the more distinctive of the era, and was a radical departure from the rectangular designs of other years.

The key rookie card is Carlton Fisk.

Cello: 24 packs per box, 28 cards per pack ($0.25).

O-Pee-Chee

The 1972 O-Pee-Chee Baseball parallels the first 525 cards of the Topps set and was made for the Canadian market. As with most OPC baseball sets, there's not much differentiating it with the Topps set -- other than the French text on the back. For the first time, the backs of the card state "PRINTED IN CANADA," while "OPC" replaced T.C.G. on the copyright line. The set was released in four series, roughly equating the first four series of '72 Topps: Series One was the first 132 cards, followed by Series Two (#133-263), Series Three (#264-394), and Series Four (#395-525).

Because the fourth series of '72 O-Pee-Chee was released after Series Four of Topps, OPC denoted the death of Mets manager Gil Hodges on his card (#465). Packs came 36 to a box, with eight cards (and a stick of gum) per pack for ten cents Canadian,
