1970 Topps
Trivia |
- 2nd and final set to include Seattle Pilots cards even though team had already moved to Milwaukee to become the Brewers.
- Wax packs were $0.10 for 10 cards. This was the first year that $0.05 wax packs were made unavailable since Topps made them available in 1952. Penny packs stopped after 1965.
- Cello packs were $0.25 for 33 cards.
- Rack packs were $0.39 for 54 cards.
- Carlos May was named to the 1969 Topps All-Star Rookie Team but his #18 card is missing the trophy designation.
- The set was released in seven series. Series 6 is #547-633. Series 7 is #634-720.
- The first series lacked the white bar between player name and position that subsequent series had (space permitting).
