For a change of pace, I thought I'd cover a Topps issue. I recently came across the 1962 Topps Stamps and found that they included a logo stamp for each team.
For anyone not familiar with the 1962 Stamps, they were issued in two-stamp panels as inserts with 1962 Topps Baseball cards.
Here's an example that's not too shabby:
Here's a nice example showing the 2 expansion teams from that year:
The stamps are mentioned on the 1962 wrapper:
As well as the box:
A stamp album was sold separately for collectors to stick their stamps:
Each team had its own page for its stamps:
Here are the team logos:
There was a stamp insert set in 1961 as well, but the stamps were not in color but rather either brown or green, and the set did not include team logos.
Great info and awesome pictures! I always find the most interesting stuff on your site.
