1974 Wonder Bread Football Cards

The 1974 Wonder Bread set includes thirty cards of star players, and its design closely resembles 1971 Topps. (Topps printed the cards for Wonder Bread.) The cards of the offensive players, punter, and kicker have red borders, and the cards of the defensive players have yellow ones. Some of the images on the Wonder Bread cards also appear in Topps sets.

The cards are distributed unevenly over the NFL's twenty-six teams of 1974. There are four Oakland Raiders and four San Francisco 49ers in the set, but there are no San Diego Chargers, Chicago Bears, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Colts, Houston Oilers, Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, or Atlanta Falcons.
