Football (Soccer)
World Cup Supersquad
Topps produced two World Cup soccer sets totaling 18 cards each. One set featured players of the English team while the other set was the Scottish team. The unique quality of these sets are the fact the each card is a portrait of the player and therefore each bears the shape of the player's head. The portraits have a small suction cup at the top for mounting. Size: 3 × 6 in. (approximate)

Famous quotes containing the word football:
“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
