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". For the first time since 1953, only one photo is on the front of the card.

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).
