2025 Topps Series 1+2 + Update Cubs Checklist

Number of Cards

The 350-card base set is back for the 2025 Topps Series 1 Baseball season.

Size of Cards

The size of the cards are standard-size 2 ½ x 3 ½

Basic Features

The 2025 Topps card design falls short of expectations In addition to subsets like Future Stars, League Leaders, and team cards, it has a base of 350 cards with a primary concentration on veterans and rookies. The absence of Mother's Day Pink and Father's Day Blue is one of the more intriguing differences.

The team name is oriented vertically on the left side, which may pose readability challenges. At the bottom, the player's name is presented alongside a baseball diamond featuring a colored dot that indicates their position. While the design incorporates elements reminiscent of classic Topps cards, the quality of the photography is notably outstanding.

1992 French's Mustard Cubs Checklist

Number of Cards

18 cards in the French's Mustard collection included 1 Cubs player.

Size of Cards

The size of the cards are standard-size 2 ½ x 3 ½

Basic Features

In the 90s, a unique set of cards was introduced for collectors. These cards were distributed in packs of three, which were attached to specially-marked 16 oz. bottles of French's mustard. The cards were enclosed in a plastic hangtag, making them easily accessible. Alternatively, collectors had the option to obtain the full set through a mail-in offer. Each card in the set showcased a player from the American League and another player from the National League. It's worth noting that these cards were officially licensed by the MLBPA and produced by MSA (Michael Schechter Associates). This peculiar collection truly captures the essence of the 90s era.

1989 King-B Disc Cubs Checklist

Number of Cards

24 disks in the King-B collection included 1 Cubs player.

Size of Cards

The size of the disks are 2 3/4"

Basic Features

Despite being granted permission by the Major League Baseball Players Association ("MLBPA") players' unions to use their images, MSA (Michael Schechter Associates) chose to cut costs by not acquiring licenses from the leagues. Consequently, the team logos have been removed through airbrushing, which is a customary practice for MSA sets. The majority of MSA releases were done in partnership with the food industry, with each disc being included in a package of Beef Jerky.

1982-85 Galasso Baseball Hobby Card Report T-206 Reprints

360 cards in the 1982-85 Galasso Baseball Hobby Card Report T-206 Reprints which there are 20 Cubs.

The size of the cards are (approximately) 1 7/16" x 2 5/8"

Basic Features

Renata Galasso, a former baseball card dealer from New York, established her company in the early 1970s. The Galasso Baseball Hobby Card Report magazines featured 40 cards with one perforated sheet. This particular set was a reprint of the original T-206 set. Each card clearly indicates it is a reprint with the words "Renata Galasso Reprint" printed at the bottom. The T206 set, originally issued from 1909 to 1911, is widely regarded as one of the most famous and sought-after card collections. Despite being reprints, these cards are not considered unlicensed.

Not to be confused with the 1983 Galasso 1909-11 T206 (Reprint) Monster set, the reverse of those cards is printed "capital reprint."
