1970 Topps Football Card Set (263/263) Incl. O.J. Simpson RC, Joe Namath etc.

Topps 1970 Football set consists of 263 cards, each measuring 2-1/2″ by 3-1/2”. The set was issued in two series, with the second series (#s 133-263) printed in slightly smaller quantities. Each artistically designed card front features a posed player portrait placed within an oval and surrounded by a tan border; a color banner beneath that likeness reveals the player’s name and team while a football design at bottom right corner identifies his position.

The card backs are designed horizontally in orange, purple and white ink, and feature statistical data, player highlights and a player cartoon. The last element is replaced on offensive and defensive linemen cards in the second series with a coin rub-off cartoon. The set is anchored by Len Dawson (#1), Bart Starr (#30), Gale Sayers (#70) and Joe Namath (#150), as well as by a wealth of rookie cards headlined by Jan Stenerud (#25), O.J. Simpson (#90), Bubba Smith (#114) and Fred Dryer (#247).

Presented is a complete 1970 Topps football card set 263/263.   The cards are in starter-to-mid grade condition with some better than others. See photos for condition assessment.  The highlight is the O.J. Simpson rookie card #90 (top edge wear).
