1977 Topps Baseball Forum

I have a 1977 Topps Alexander/Cerone/Murphy/Pasley rookie card with a blank back. 

Are blank backs pretty common with Topps cards?

Throughout the years, there have been several that have found their way into the hands of collectors. I personally pulled several out of packs in 1985. Pulled a couple in 1987. I have seen several from the 1989 set (which also has a ton of blank fronts out there as well).

They happen. They are obviously not happening in as great of quantity as the properly-printed cards, but they are print flaws. And with that, if you're looking to sell the item, you need to find the right collector. (But you didn't ask about that, so I won't get into resale value and the like). They are common. I don't think as many from the 1970s are surfacing these days as are ones from the 1980s.

It was quite common with Topps/OPC hockey. As a triibute, current sets have blank back parallels.

My oldest is 1975-76 Topps hockey.

Thank you for the background. I figured they were not uncommon and “errors” are not considered as valuable like a printing error on a postage stamp (which is an entirely different collectible space).

No plans to sell as I don’t think there’s a demand for this card. 

I'd be interested depending on what you wanted for it
