Description
1957 Topps is a 407-card set released across five series. With Bowman now out of the way, Topps reduced the size of their cards to what is now the "standard size" of 2 1/2" X 3 1/2". This was also the first Topps set to feature color photography -- as opposed to paintings or colorized black & white photos.
Rookie Cards in this set are Jim Bunning, Rocky Colavito, Don Drysdale, Whitey Herzog, Tony Kubek, Bill Mazeroski, Bobby Richardson, Brooks Robinson, and Frank Robinson.
Despite being released in five series, Series Four is actually the scarcest series.
Distribution
Penny Wax: 120 packs per box, one card plus one stick of gum per pack ($0.01).
Nickel Wax: 24 packs per box, six cards plus one stick of gum per pack ($0.05).
