Looking for a Larry Bird or Magic Johnson rookie card? Enjoy sets with confusing checklists? 1980 Topps Basketball may be right up your alley.
Each card features three players, each with an individual card number, for a total of 246 players on 88 cards. Beyond the initial 88 cards, another 88 cards with the exact same 246 players fills up the back half of the set (#89-176).
For the purposes of our checklist, the whole card number is listed in one column with each individual player card number listed in another.
Notable in this set is a card that features Larry Bird, Julius Erving, and Magic Johnson because it is a rookie card for both Bird and Johnson. This set covers the 1980/81 season.
