1991 Topps Archives 1953
Trivia |
- 12 cards per pack, 36 packs per box, and 12 boxes per case.
- The cards after #280 were not part of the original 1953 set and represent "The Cards that Never Were" and contain this statement on the backs.
- Card #82 of Mickey Mantle was featured on the cover of the April 1992 issue of Sports Card Trader magazine with the caption, "Topps '53 Archives Are Sizzling!"
- There were reportedly 18,000 cases produced.
- Card numbers 174, 253, 261, 267, 268, 271, and 275 do not exist.
- Card #174 (Billy Loes) was not included in the Archives set because he would not sign a contract. He evidently wanted more than the $500 Topps was offering.
