2021 Topps Heritage Baseball Salutes 1972 Set

July 29, 2020 By Rich Mueller

Time marches on but in the case of a long running baseball card release, it's always a trip backward.  2021 Topps Heritage Baseball is set to arrive March 26 with its annual salute to seasons past.  This time it's all about the mod design that was 1972.  Sadly, packs are no longer 10 cents, but those who dig the originals usually smile at some of the nods to … [Read more...] about 2021 Topps Heritage Baseball Salutes 1972 Set

Kahn’s Promoted its Baseball Cards in 1950s, 60s Newspapers

March 11, 2020 By Rich Mueller

As baseball card food issues go, it was an impressive run.  While Kelloggs released an unbroken string of baseball (and some football) sets in the 1970s and 80s, Kahn's Wieners card sets were regional issues that required a lot of hot dog eating to collect.  The Cincinnati-based company issued baseball card-oriented promotions from 1955 through 1969 and as our … [Read more...] about Kahn’s Promoted its Baseball Cards in 1950s, 60s Newspapers

May 1, 2019 By Adam Hughes

In the waning hours of 1972, a cargo plane bound for Nicaragua crashed into the ocean off the coast of Puerto Rico, taking with it a true baseball hero and casting a dark pall over the 1973 season before the New Year could even introduce itself to the world.  Roberto Clemente had collected his 3000th hit just months before, on the last day of the regular season, and … [Read more...] about 1973 Topps Baseball Set Bid Farewell to Clemente, Hello to Schmidt
