Set of the Month
1983 Topps Traded is a 132-card update set. Similarly to the previous year's 1982 Topps Traded, Topps sequentially-numbered the Traded series from 1T to 132T. Also repeating a theme from the previous year, the backs of the cards are noticeably offset from the base set, with the traded set being a bright, salmon pink in color with black print, in contrast to 1983 Topps which had brownish backs. The set features player photos as seen in the uniform of their new team, and new prints of rookies called up during the season. Key Rookie Cards (XRCs) in this set include Darryl Strawberry and Julio Franco.
