A Tour of the Vintage Football Card Gallery
November 11th, 2008 | Published in New in the Gallery | 2 Comments
As the About page says, the Vintage Football Card Gallery is a reference site. The cards in the gallery are not for sale, but I do have lots of cards for sale on my Nearmint’s Vintage Football Cards site.
You can search the gallery for your favorite set, team, player, or college. To do complex searches, such as “Show all the rookie cards of Hall of Fame players named Bob,” try the Advanced Search page.
On the Site Map you will find links to other miscellaneous pages. Among them:
- The sports card auction finder, a tool for searching eBay auctions that is tailored for vintage sports cards
- A page that shows a bunch of cards that picture the wrong player
- A page showing lots of vintage football card wrappers
- Interactive 1961 Topps Green Bay Packers and 1963 Topps Dallas Cowboys team cards
- Puzzles of Bart Starr, Len Dawson, and Fran Tarkenton, assembled from the backs of 1968 and 1969 Topps football cards
- Examples of pre-rookie cards, minor issues that were printed before players’ commonly accepted rookie cards
- “Virtual” uncut sheets of cards: 1959 Topps, 1960 Fleer, 1960 Topps, 1961 Fleer, 1963 Fleer, 1966 Philadelphia, 1968 Topps, 1969 Topps, and 1970 Topps Super.
I add to the gallery whenever I have time, so check back occasionally for new cards. Enjoy your visit!

The ABCs of football cards is awesome. Just noticed you omitted Nick Buoniconti as one of the 1963 Fleer HOF rookie cards in the set. I just finished off the trio with a nice ebay pick-up of the Dawson.
Love the site, Tony

Hi Tony, thanks for pointing out the Buoniconti omission. I just went back and fixed that. Glad you’re enjoying the ABC’s!
