1966 Batman

2,797 card classes · 4,155 live listings1962 Topps Mars Attacks
Fifty-five cards telling the story of a Martian invasion, painted by Norm Saunders and issued under the Bubbles Inc. name because Topps knew what was coming. Parents complained, production stopped, and the set became one of the most collected in the hobby.
474 card classes · 902 live listings1888 Duke N76 Great Americans
Fifty Americans on cigarette cards, each with a facsimile signature on the front: Lincoln, Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Grant, Edison, Mark Twain and Edgar Allan Poe among them. Unnumbered, with the fifty names listed alphabetically on the back.
137 card classes · 184 live listings1888 Duke N124 Presidential Possibilities
Twenty-five men thought to have a shot at the 1888 presidency, issued by W. Duke, Sons & Co. with Honest Long Cut Tobacco. Two of them got there: Benjamin Harrison and William McKinley. Unnumbered - the checklist is printed on the back.
32 card classes · 57 live listings1888 Allen & Ginter N2 American Indian Chiefs
Fifty chiefs, drawn from Department of the Interior photographs of men who were mostly still living when the cards were printed. Unnumbered, with the checklist on the back. Four cards were issued naming the wrong man and are far scarcer than the corrected versions.
141 card classes · 182 live listings1888 Allen & Ginter N29
The second series of “World’s Champions”, issued in 1888 - fifty more subjects across seventeen sports, from Buck Ewing and the six ball players to a club swinger, a hammer thrower and the man who swam the straits of Gibraltar. Unnumbered, like the first series.
47 card classes · 47 live listings1887 Allen & Ginter N28
Allen & Ginter's “World's Champions” — fifty subjects issued with Richmond cigarettes in 1887, from Cap Anson and King Kelly to Annie Oakley and Buffalo Bill. The cards carry no numbers; the subject is the card.
197 card classes · 226 live listings1940 Superman
Gum, Inc.'s 72-card R145 set from 1940 — the first Superman trading cards — tracked card by card, graded and raw. The high numbers (#49–72) had a short run and are far harder to find.

The Same Batman Card Exists in Four Countries and Only the Back Tells You Which
Topps in America, O-Pee-Chee in Canada, A&BC in England and Scanlens in Australia printed the same Norman Saunders paintings. The fronts are near enough identical. The copyright line on the reverse is the whole identification method.
The Album Told Children Exactly Where to Apply the Glue
Several issues this index tracks were sold with an album to stick them into. A card used as its maker intended tops out around a 2, and for some issues that is what every surviving copy looks like.
Cigarette Cards Were Packaging Before They Were Collectibles. Probably Not These Ones.
The standard story is that blank cards went into flimsy paper packs to stop the cigarettes being crushed. It is well attested and it does not obviously apply to the Allen and Ginter sets this index tracks, because Ginter had already fixed the packaging two years earlier.
