In 1964, Topps sought to capitalize on the Beatles craze with a group of (7) different sets. The Beatles had appeared on the Ed Sullivan show on February 9, 1964. Topps seized the opportunity and issued all seven of the Beatles sets during 1964. There were a trio of Beatles Black and White sets, a trio of Color sets and an oddball, oversized, kitchy Beatles plaques set. Most all the sets were between 55 and 64 cards.
This 66-card series features color photos of the Fab Four, with Q&A with Beatles
members on the back. A very attractive series, difficult to locate in high grade, and with the usual
centering problems of this era. The “portrait cards” (#1-#4) are all a solid EX with some
lesser and some better.
