1979 Topps is a 726-card single-series set.  This marked the sixth straight year the Topps set was issued as a single series and the second year the set reached 726 cards.  Because Topps printed cards using a 132-card sheet, 66 cards are double-printed.
The set's key rookie card is Ozzie Smith.  Subsets include:
* League Leaders (#1-8)
* Record Breakers (#201-206)
* All-Time Season and Career Stat Leaders (#411-418)
* Rookie Prospects  (#701-726)
As with most Topps sets of the era, cards are hard to find perfectly centered and command a premium.
