2.5x3.5". The Topps 1971 Football set consists of 263 cards. The set was issued in two series, with the second series (#s 133-263) printed in slightly smaller quantities. Each card front features a posed player portrait surrounded by either a red (AFC), blue (NFC) or blue-and-red (All-Pros) border. The player's name, team name, position and conference are printed at the bottom border, with a cartoon-like player icon illustrating the position. For the first time, Topps added yearly statistics to the card back.
