1962 Topps Football Singles

Product Details

The 1962 Topps Football card set consists of 176 standard sized cards measuring 2-1/2 by 3-1/2 inches. After one year of featuring players from both the NFL and the upstart AFL, Topps returned to the practice of featuring only NFL players. The company also reverted to a card design that was slightly evocative of the horizontal design of its 1957 set. The key rookies in the set are Ernie Davis (#36), Fran Tarkenton (#90) and Mike Ditka (#17). Other rookies include, Roman Gabriel (#88), Alex Hawkins (#3), Don Perkins (#41), Fuzzy Thurston (#69), Tommy Mason (#94), Billy Kilmer (#151) and Norm Snead (#164). Veterans anchoring the set include Jim Brown (#28) and the seemingly omnipresent number one card of Johnny Unitas.
