Excerpt
There are 48 cards in the 1933 Sport Kings set, but only three of them feature baseball players. As a showcase of athletes from several different arenas, there are 18 different sports represented in the set. Many of the athletes included are legends, so the issue has remained quite popular over the years. The first individual cards of basketball players are featured, as well as a father/son combo and a woman athlete.
Rookies
There are no rookies in this set.
More set notes
The 2000 Topps Traded sets were released in October, 2000 and featured a 135-card base set, and one additional autograph card. The set carried a suggested retail price of $29.99. Please note that each card in the base set carried a 'T' prefix before the card number. Topps announced that due to the unavailability of certain players previously scheduled to sign autographs, Topps will include a small quantity of autographed cards from the 2000 Topps Baseball Rookies/Traded set into its 2000 Bowman Baseball Draft Picks and Prospects set.
The 2001 Topps set featured 790 cards and was issued over two series. The set looks to bring back some of the heritage that Topps established in the past by bringing back manager cards (322-351), dual-player draft picks cards (352-361, 737-751), three-player prospect cards (362-376, 727-736), Golden Moments (377-386, 782-791), Season Highlights (387-391), League Leaders (392-399), team cards (752-781) and Playoffs (400-406). Notable Rookie Cards include Ichiro Susuki and Hee Seop Choi. Also included with the factory box are 8 unnumbered checklist cards.
This set consists of 132 standard-size cards featuring traded players in their new uniforms, rookies and draft choices. Factory sets consisted of 140 cards including a set of eight Topps Finest cards. Card fronts feature a player photo with the player's name, team and position at the bottom. The horizontal backs have a player photo to the left with complete career statistics and highlights. Rookie Cards include Rusty Greer, Ben Grieve, Paul Konerko, Terrence Long and Chan Ho Park.
This 132-card standard-size Traded set, numbered 1T - 132T, was distributed exclusively in hobby set form in a red and white box through hobby dealers. The set numbering is in alphabetical order by player's name. The cards are identical to regular-issue 1986 Topps cards except for whiter stock and 'T'-suffixed numbering. Key extended Rookie Cards (XRC) in this set are Barry Bonds, Will Clark, Andres Galarraga, Bobby Bonilla, Jose Canseco, Bo Jackson, Wally Joyner, John Kruk and Kevin Mitchell.
