I don't get it - it says "Sport" but I don't see anything about hockey on there. But... inside was Rocket Richard’s brutally honest, though always pro-Canadiens monthly column. 😉
In French!

OMG!! BARRY GOLDWATER #1! You joke but that's actually been high on my want list ever since I found a copy of Lyndon B. Johnson in some dealer's dollar box at Emerald City a few years back.
Cei-U! I summon the Arizona nalso-ran!

At least they added the Thing to that Human Torch feature but it's still kinda painful. |

Well, those were way after my time. I was too busy asking the super-patriots whether they thought we'd be saving Kuwait if they were sitting on reserves of kumquats instead of oil.  |

There were Civil War cards, too, in 1962, because of the centennial. Just as gruesome as the Mars Attack cards from the same year. To wit:    In 1965, Topps also issued WW2 cards, but that's one series I never saw. They were by Norm Saunders, too, and right up there in the gruesome category.    |
