1955 Topps All-American Football Cards

The 1955 Topps All-American football card set contains 100 cards of College All-Americans from years past. Two cards have variations: the Gaynell Tinsley and Whizzer White cards were first printed with each other's biography, then corrected. You can see the error versions in one of my blog articles. Another blog article, A is for All-Americans, has a description of the 1955 Topps All-American set.

Rookie cards of Pro Football Hall of Famers in the 1955 Topps All-American set: Ace Parker, Benny Friedman, Don Hutson, Ernie Nevers, Fats Henry, Mel Hein.

Rookie cards of Heisman Trophy winners in the 1955 Topps All-American set: Davey O'Brien, Doc Blanchard, Jay Berwanger, Nile Kinnick, Tom Harmon.
