Uncut Sheets of 1966 Philadelphia Football Cards

Home > Features > Virtual Uncut Sheets > 1966 Philadelphia

The diagrams below show the configuration of the two halves of a full, 264-card sheet of 1966 Philadelphia football cards. The diagrams are modeled after actual half-sheets I have seen online, one at Morphy Auctions, and one at Robert Edward Auctions. There are 198 cards in the 1966 Philadelphia set, so the whole set fit on a 264-card sheet, with 66 cards being duplicated. In the diagrams below, the twelve tan-colored rows represent the duplicated cards, or "double prints." The double prints are not documented in the popular price guides, but I have identified them in the Gallery.

The diagrams below also show, in bold font, the twelve 1966 Philadelphia cards least often graded PSA 8 or better, as of December 2022. All twelve are single prints, and half of them were on the edge of the uncut sheet.

Philadelphia produced football cards from 1964 to 1967, and all four sets contained 198 cards. Having compared sheets, partial sheets, and miscut cards from the four years, I've found that the company used the same numbering on the 1965, 1966, and 1967 sheets. Only the 1964 sheets were different.

If you hold your cursor above a card below, your browser should show you the number of the card and the name of the player. Clicking on a card will bring up the full-sized scan. (The actual uncut sheets did not have black lines between the cards--that is an effect of scanning them individually.)

First Half-Sheet

This is what one half of the 264-card sheet looked like:

This is how the cards were arranged by number on the half-sheet. I presume that the pseudo-random numbering was so the cards would appear to be randomly distributed in packs, even if they were packaged in order by row or column. Philadelphia's system of numbering certainly wasn't completely random, though. In many places on the sheet, two players from the same team are three cards apart, in the same row.
