Item Description
Set of 50, each is 2.5x3.5". The Topps set was comprised of 88 cards and issued in 1957, this set was reduced to 50 cards and issued c. 1958. There were several foreign versions of this set including one in England by A&BC. What makes this Italian set interesting is that the art fronts and text  backs were altered, some just subtle changes, others very notable. This was done to remove the "American" look of the cards and make them more marketable in Italy. Compare the cards we show to the Topps issues and you will see what we mean. Lt. margin wear/aging but a clean set w/fairly sharp corners. NM to NM/MT+. The New England Non-Sports Card Collection.
