1966 Topps

Topps 1966 Football set consists of 132 cards, each measuring 2-1/2” by 4-11/16”. The colorful cards feature a player's likeness set within a brown faux wood-grain border; the bottom border area carries the player's name, team affiliation and position. This set is anchored by the second year issue of Joe Namath (#96) and the Funny Ring checklist (#15 and identifying the 24-card “Funny Ring” insert set), the rookie cards of Wendell Hayes, George Sauer, Jr., Otis Taylor and Jim Turner. The 1966 Topps Football set additionally featured cards for the debut year of the Miami Dolphins. Not surprisingly, the brown wood-grain border created numerous condition issues, making any card very difficult to acquire in high-grade.
