Item Description
2.5x3.5". Topps 1979 Football set consists of 528 cards.  Each card front features a posed player portrait with his identity and team name along the top; his position appears within a football logo incorporated into a banner design also set at the top of the card. Backs contain statistics and highlights. Subsets include league leaders (#s 1-6), playoffs (#s 166-168) and record breakers (#s 331-336). Topps printed each card in its 1979 series on its standard dark card stock, as well as on a thinner cream-colored card stock. The latter variation is considered slightly more difficult to find.
