Uncut Sheets of 1966 Topps Football Cards

First Half-Sheet

The picture below shows the configuration of an uncut half-sheet of 1966 Topps football cards. It is based on a photo of a real half-sheet that a reader sent me. If you hold your cursor above a card, 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. (A real uncut sheet would not have black lines between the cards--that is an effect of scanning them individually.)

There are 132 cards in the 1966 Topps set, and this half-sheet contains exactly one set. The cards were printed on a 264-card full sheet like this 1966 Topps baseball card sheet.

The following table shows how the cards were arranged by number on the half-sheet above. The cards in green have the lowest populations in PSA 8 and above, according to PSA's population report. You can see from the pattern that cards on the edges of the sheet tended to get damaged in production.

Second Half-Sheet

I have seen a picture of only one half-sheet of 1966 Topps cards, so I am not 100% certain what the second half-sheet looked like. My guess, though, that it was configured just like the first half sheet, except that the left six columns were switched with the right six columns. I have seen this pattern in 1960 Fleer sheets and 1969 Topps first series sheets, also. If my guess is correct, this is how the second half-sheet was configured:

And this is how the second half-sheet was numbered:
