1968 Topps Poster Packs
A fairly tough example of a Topps item… Back in 1968 Topps issued a set of 24 Posters with some of the bigger players of that era. These posters were not available as inserts and could only be purchased in packs - 1 poster to a pack along with a piece of gum. The production code on the box was 1-400-37-01-8. The production code on the pack was 0-400-91-01-8.

1969 Topps Poster Packs
This is also a fairly tough example of a Topps item… As a follow up to the 1968 Posters, Topps decided to issue 24 Team Posters with about 9 players from a team on each one. These posters were not available as inserts and could only be purchased in packs - 1 poster to a pack along with a piece of gum. The production code on the box was 1-490-37-01-8. The code on the wax pack was 0-490-97-01-8.

1970 Topps Poster Packs
Perhaps the toughest of all to find… Continuing their short tradition, Topps issued Posters of individual players. These posters were available for purchase in packs - believed to be 1 poster to a pack along with a piece of gum. The production code on the box was 1-689-37-01-0. It is believed that these All Star Posters are different from the ones that were included as Inserts with the Regular Topps Issue.
