	USATODAY.com - Topps facts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Pafko, a good player, was Card No. 1 in the 1952 Topps set, which meant kids put him at the top of their stack before wrapping their cards in a rubber band and sticking them in their pockets or school bags.
		Topps takes pride in its accuracy, given the huge number of cards it has produced.
		Topps jumped the gun with a franchise move in 1974, changing "San Diego" to "Washington" on the cards of 15 players when it appeared the team would relocate.

	Topps - BR Bullpen
		Topps is the most popular maker of baseball cards.
		The most popular card Topps has ever produced was in the 1952 set, #311 featured Mickey Mantle.

	Topps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After being privately held for several decades, Topps offered stock to the public for the first time in 1972 with the assistance of investment banking firm White, Weld and Co. The company returned to private ownership when it was acquired in a leveraged buyout led by Forstmann Little and Company in 1984.
		Topps was left with a substantial amount of surplus stock in 1952, which it largely disposed of by dumping many cards into the Atlantic.
		In addition, Topps is the only manufacturer able to produce cards of players who worked as replacement players during the 1994-95 baseball strike, since they are barred from union membership and participation in the group licensing program.

		Topps roof renewal can cost about one-fourth to one-half as much as a new roof, and still provide you with a long-lasting, well-protected roof.
		Also, in many countries, Topps roof renewal is considered a "maintenance expense," which means it provides tax advantages not available with new roofs.
		Not only is Topps roof renewal less expensive, but Topps roof coatings are thicker and offer greater reinforcement than the top coating of an original roof.

		Topps Chewing Gum, Inc. manufactures Bazooka gum, Garbage Pail Kids, and many more such products; it is the largest manufacturer of bubble gum and related products in the world.
		But Topps is known by many not for its gum so much as for what comes with it: baseball cards.
		For the next twenty-five years, Topps monopolized the baseball-card market; Fleer issued a few sets of old-timers in the early 1960s, and later produced World Series-history sets, but Topps had locked up the basic concept of the baseball-card set that consisted of most of the active players in the major leagues.

	1977 Topps Mexican Football Cards
		Topps chose to test the waters of Mexico in 1977 by releasing an American football set manufactured and issued in Mexico with the text written in Spanish.
		The 1977 Topps Mexican Football set resembles the standard issue in many ways, but it is the subtle (and very distinct) differences that make it unique, mysterious, extremely collectible, and almost a cult-like obsession for those that collect and are trying tediously to complete the set.
		After exhaustive research and compilation of private sales, auctions, and communique with other Topps Mexican traders, buyers, and sellers, I have compiled a representative price list of the entire 528 card set, commons, minor stars, 2 card and 4 card wax packs, and complete unopened 2 card wax boxes.

	Looking Back at 1960s Topps Baseball Cards
		The 1962 Topps set was the biggest ever, at least at the time, with 598 cards, plus some varieties that took the actual count over 600.
		The Topps Peel-Offs included 46 players of the day that could be peeled and stuck to a shirt, wall, or refrigerator.
		Topps also released its "Giants" series that year, named that not because of affiliation with the San Francisco Giants, but because the card was a relatively gigantic 3-1/8" by 5-1/4." Inserted in the wax packs were metal discs that have come to be called "Topps Coins." There are 164 pieces in this coin set.

		Topps has also agreed to expand its Board of Directors from nine to ten seats and to solicit proxies for all four nominees.
		The Topps dispute is of importance to pop culture retailers because Topps owns WizKids, a key player in the hobby games market, while Topps also has a major share of the sports trading card business in the U.S. as well as a portion of the smaller entertainment trading card sector.
		The fate of Topps as a supplier is important for many retailers, while the price of Topps stock is the only point of interest for the hedge fund raiders, who believe that Topps should endeavor to be acquired by a larger company that could (supposedly) use its financial resources to expand the Topps brand.

		The Topps All-Star Rookie Team, also known as the Topps ASR, is a set of baseball cards issued by Topps every year to commemorate notable rookie players.
		In 1961, Topps moved to including a trophy symbol that included the phrase "Topps 1961 All-Star Rookie" on cards that followed the same design as the rest of the regular issue.

		Today we say that the modern era of baseball cards begins with the 1952 Topps set, for which Mantle's card is the biggie, not just because it is his Topps rookie card but also because it was a high number, which jumps the value up as well.
		Topps had to do the cut outs because under Major League Baseball Players Association rules the former University of Nebraska star, who was the second pick in last year's draft, did not sign a contract until September.
		The Topps set remains THE set for me each year because it is the one with history behind it, so if you feel the same way it is a must have for your collection.
