Set Notes
Excerpt
In 1977 for the fifth consecutive year, Topps produced a 660-card standard-size baseball set. Among other fashons, this set was released in 10 card wax packs as well as thirty-nine card rack packs. The player's name, team affiliation, and his position are compactly arranged over the picture area and a facsimile autograph appears on the photo. Team cards feature a checklist of that team's players in the set and a small picture of the manager on the front of the card. Appearing for the first time are the series 'Brothers' (631-634), and 'Turn Back The Clock' (433-437).
