1969 Eskimo Pie

The 1969 Eskimo Pie football card set contains 15 panel pairs of American Football League players.

The 1969 Eskimo Pie football card set contains 15 panel pairs of American Football League players. Each pair of individual player cards is most commonly collected together and, thus, cataloged as pairs below. Each could be cut off of Eskimo Pie Ice Cream boxes at the time and most, if not all, can also be found in a thinner sticker version originally attached to a green colored backing paper - two cards per panel for a total of four players. We've cataloged the card/box version below with a "C" suffix after the card number and an "S" suffix for the known sticker versions. This thin sticker version apppears to be more difficult to find than the card/box version. The panels measure approximately 2 1/2" by 3" when neatly cut. The unnumbered pairs are checklisted below alphabetically according to the last name of the player on the left. The names are mistakenly reversed on the card containing Jim Otto and Len Dawson (card number 14). Finally, a 16th sticker was uncovered in 2012 which included an offer for four different NFL team logo jewelry premiums: tie clasp, tie tac, pendant, and charm bracelet with the Jets team logo featured. This premium offer sticker was issued along with the Lamonica/Frazier sticker pair and it measures the same size as a standard sticker pair. The catalog designation for this set is F73. [Collapse]
