About 2013 75th Anniversary
2013 Topps 75th Anniversary overview, key cards and what collectors chase
2013 Topps 75th Anniversary: a 100-card tour of Topps entertainment sets from 1948 to 1995, with pop-culture autographs, cut signatures and stamped buybacks
2013 Topps 75th Anniversary was released on December 11, 2013. It is a set of trading cards about trading cards: each base card reprints a card from a classic Topps entertainment issue with a 75th-anniversary logo, and the back tells the story of that set. Hobby boxes had 24 packs of 8 cards, with three autographs and one stamped buyback per box.
What's in the checklist
- Base: 100 cards from 1948 Magic Photos to 1995 The X-Files, with Rainbow Foil (1 per pack), Diamond Anniversary /75, Modern Gloss /10 and Printing Plate 1/1 parallels
- Inserts: 8 Mini Cards honoring small-format sets and 8 Test Cards for test issues that never got a wide release
- Autographs: 22 unnumbered sticker autographs (Rainbow Foil 150 copies, Diamond Anniversary /75), Sylvester Stallone buyback autographs on original Rocky and Rambo cards, and 7 Cut Signatures, all 1/1
Key subjects
The base set covers Mars Attacks, the Beatles, Star Wars, Garbage Pail Kids, Wacky Packages and The Simpsons. The signers include Roger Moore, Richard Kiel, Corey Feldman, Ernie Hudson and Dawn Wells. The cut signatures include Farrah Fawcett, Bob Hope and Evel Knievel.
Grading considerations
The Rainbow Foil and Diamond Anniversary surfaces show print lines and scratches. The Modern Gloss, the Stallone buybacks and the cut signatures are low-population cards worth grading. On the autographs, check that the sticker sits cleanly and the signature is sharp.
