=Description=


=Distribution=
1973 Topps is a 660-card set released in five series of 132 cards.  This would be the final year Topps would issue their annual card set in multiple series, and as is custom, cards from the final series (#529-#660) are in smaller supply.  As a test, and perhaps a preview of [[1974 Topps|the following year's product,]] in limited areas of the country all five series were released simultaneously.


=Reviews=
Compared to the [[1972 Topps|previous year's set,]] the design was toned-down, with a white border and a position "icon" in the lower corner.  Although most photos were posed, many of the action shots are out of focus and poorly cropped.


=Insertion Ratios=
Subsets include League Leaders (cards #61-#68), Playoffs (#201 and #202) and World Series Highlights (#203-#210), Boyhood Photos of the Stars (#341-#346), All-Time Leaders (#1 and #471-#478), 1973 Rookies (#601-#616), Team Cards and Managers & Coaches (scattered).  Since it was believed that Hank Aaron had a chance of breaking the all-time home run record, card #1 is of the All-Time Home Run Leaders.  (Aaron finished the '73 season with 713 homers).


{| class="ratio"
The only prominent rookie card is of Mike Schmidt, who shares a multi-player RC with Ron Cey.  Fellow Hall of Famer Goose Gossage also has his RC in '73 Topps, as do Bob Boone, Dwight Evans, and Garry Maddox.  Final cards include Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays.

=Checklist=
There are a number of variations in the Manager & Coaches subset.  On some cards, the inset photos of each team's assistant coaches have an orange/brown tint with the background (trees, clouds, et al) still able to be seen.  On others, the inset photo is a solid orange/brown.

1973 O-Pee-Chee is a 660-card set produced and distributed for the Canadian market. As with previous and future OPC sets of the era, the design is identical to that of the Topps flagship -- with the exception of the backs being in both English and French and the words "PRINTED IN CANADA" on the back. The backs of each card have a lighter shade of yellow, as compared to the golden backs of Topps.

Description

1973 Topps is a 660-card set released in five series of 132 cards. This would be the final year Topps would issue their annual card set in multiple series, and as is custom, cards from the final series (#529-#660) are in smaller supply. As a test, and perhaps a preview of the following year's product, in limited areas of the country all five series were released simultaneously.

Compared to the previous year's set, the design was toned-down, with a white border and a position "icon" in the lower corner. Although most photos were posed, many of the action shots are out of focus and poorly cropped.

Subsets include League Leaders (cards #61-#68), Playoffs (#201 and #202) and World Series Highlights (#203-#210), Boyhood Photos of the Stars (#341-#346), All-Time Leaders (#1 and #471-#478), 1973 Rookies (#601-#616), Team Cards and Managers & Coaches (scattered). Since it was believed that Hank Aaron had a chance of breaking the all-time home run record, card #1 is of the All-Time Home Run Leaders. (Aaron finished the '73 season with 713 homers).

The only prominent rookie card is of Mike Schmidt, who shares a multi-player RC with Ron Cey. Fellow Hall of Famer Goose Gossage also has his RC in '73 Topps, as do Bob Boone, Dwight Evans, and Garry Maddox. Final cards include Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays.

There are a number of variations in the Manager & Coaches subset. On some cards, the inset photos of each team's assistant coaches have an orange/brown tint with the background (trees, clouds, et al) still able to be seen. On others, the inset photo is a solid orange/brown.

Distribution

Wax: 24 packs per box, ten cards plus one stick of bubble gum per pack (MSRP: $0.10).

Cello: 24 packs per box, 27 cards plus one stick of bubble gum per pack (MSRP: $0.25).

Rack: 24 packs per box, 54 cards per pack (MSRP: $0.39).

O-Pee-Chee

1973 O-Pee-Chee is a 660-card set produced and distributed for the Canadian market. As with previous and future OPC sets of the era, the design is identical to that of the Topps flagship -- with the exception of the backs being in both English and French and the words "PRINTED IN CANADA" on the back. The backs of each card have a lighter shade of yellow, as compared to the golden backs of Topps.

Unlike the '73 Topps set, which was issued for the final time in multiple series, the entire '73 OPC set was issued in one series; meaning, all 660 O-Pee-Chee cards were printed in equal quantities.

Cards were sold in wax packs of ten cards (plus a stick of gum), with 36 packs per box. Packs retailed for ten cents Canadian.

Team Checklists

24 Team Checklists were randomly inserted into a limited number of Series Five packs, as well as those test-marketed packs containing cards from all five series. The cards have the same "all autograph" design of the Team Checklists in 1974 Topps, but have blue borders as opposed to red.

An uncut sheet of all 24 Team Checklist was also available via a mail order offer from Topps.

For the Canadian market, O-Pee-Chee also made a set of 24 Team Checklists available mail order. The only difference between the Topps and OPC Team Checklist is the addition of French text on the back.
