TOPPS 1970′S PART 1
MR. POTTER’S FUNTIME BLOG
In addition to trading cards I love to look at all the various products Topps has released over the last few decades (along with items that were not released). There is a lot of really neat stuff that just brings you back to being a kid and all the excitement of wondering what would turn up on the store shelves next. A lot of the stuff may have only had a short life on the racks but is definitely worth taking a second look at. The packaging and art is so fun too.
I thought I’d post a little “mini-history” in chunks starting with the 1970s and continuing into the 1980s.
