1957 Topps Football Cards

1957 Topps football card wrapperThere are 154 cards in the 1957 Topps football card set. According to the price guides, the set was issued in two series, cards 1-88 and cards 89-154. I believe that that is incorrect, however, because I have seen a partial sheet containing both low- and high-numbered cards. See my 1957 Topps virtual uncut sheet page for details. Also see my blog article, T is for Topps, Part 1: the 1950s.

Rookie cards of Pro Football Hall of Famers in the 1957 Topps set: Raymond Berry, Jack Butler, Paul Hornung, Dick Lane, Tommy McDonald, Bart Starr, John Unitas. Rookie cards of Heisman Trophy winners in the 1957 Topps set: Howard Cassady, Paul Hornung.
