- Title: [Topps baseball card collection, complete team sets, 1973-2019 (Red Sox 1951-2019)]
- Creator(s): Topps Company, publisher
- Related Names:
Donruss , publisher
Fleer Corporation , publisher
Pacific Trading Cards, Inc. , publisher
Score (Trading cards) , publisher
Visual Panographics, Inc. , publisher - Date Created/Published: [Topps Company and others], [1912-2019, bulk 1973-2019].
- Medium: 46,293 prints : half-tone photomechanical, color ; sheets 64 x 89 mm.
- Summary: Cards show team member portraits, teams, coaches, managers, stadiums, signatures and mascots. Some of the cards commemorate players from an earlier era. There are sets of cards for each team spanning from 1973 to 2019 unless the team started after 1973 in which case the cards begin with their first season. Additionally, there are cards for the Boston Red Sox going back to ca. 1911. Some of the cards show players in Team USA uniforms but the players are filed with a professinal team for which they played. Almost all of the cards are published by Topps but the collection also includes cards by other publishers. The collection includes sets by Donross and Fleer for most teams between 1981 and 1983. There are also Fleer cards for some of the teams for the years 1986, 1987 and 1990. Almost all the teams include cards published by Pacific Trading Cards in 1988 and 1990, cards published by Score in 1989, and lenticular (3-D) cards published by Visual Panographics, Inc. in 1972, 1977 and 1980. There are a small number of cards for other publishers including Cramer Sports Productions (1980-1981), Leaf Trading Cards (1988) amd Power Deck (1990-1991). There are also cards issued or sponsored by companies including Granny Goose Foods (1982-1983), Hostess Twinkies (1975, 1977), Kelloggs (1980), Mothers Cookies (1987-1988, 1990), and Ralston Purina (1984). A few of the cards are signed or include stickers or small pieces of uniforms and bats.

- Notes:
- Arrangement: Collection is arranged into 34 LOTs. The first two LOTs are for sample baseball card collectors' binders (LOT 15501) and for team logo stickers (LOT 15502). The other 32 LOTS are baseball cards arranged by team starting with LOT 15503 and going through LOT 15524. The core arrangement is by team name, not the places where the team played over time. Within the LOTs the cards are in the collector's original order which is chiefly chronological but there are anomalies, usually among the cards from the 1990s. Also, although the LOTs are arranged by team they include images of players from other teams because cards sometimes depict two or more players from different teams and the collector chose to place the card with one team rather than the other(s). The collector placed some player cards with teams the player was not part of. To locate all the cards for a particular team, please search for the team name across all catalog records. Each LOT has a separate catalog record.

Please use the following steps to determine whether you need to fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room to view the original item(s). In some cases, a surrogate (substitute image) is available, often in the form of a digital image, a copy print, or microfilm.
-
Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will
be visible on the left.)
-
Yes, the item is digitized. Please use the digital image in preference to requesting the original. All images can be viewed at a large size when you are in any reading room at the Library of Congress. In some cases, only thumbnail (small) images are available when you are outside the Library of Congress because the item is rights restricted or has not been evaluated for rights restrictions.
As a preservation measure, we generally do not serve an original item when a digital image is available. If you have a compelling reason to see the original, consult with a reference librarian. (Sometimes, the original is simply too fragile to serve. For example, glass and film photographic negatives are particularly subject to damage. They are also easier to see online where they are presented as positive images.)
-
No, the item is not digitized. Please go to #2.
-
-
Do the Access Advisory or Call Number fields above indicate that
a non-digital surrogate exists, such as microfilm or copy prints?
-
Yes, another surrogate exists. Reference staff can direct you to this surrogate.
-
No, another surrogate does not exist. Please go to #3.
-
-
If you do not see a thumbnail image or a reference to another surrogate, please fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room. In many cases, the originals can be served in a few minutes. Other materials require appointments for later the same day or in the future. Reference staff can advise you in both how to fill out a call slip and when the item can be served.
To contact Reference staff in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room, please use our Ask A Librarian service or call the reading room between 8:30 and 5:00 at 202-707-6394, and Press 3.
