WTB - Topps Space Cards

I'm looking for Topps Space Cards (the ones from 1957 or the reprints).
They don't have to be in mint condition but should be in decent shape.
PM me if you can help.
Thanks!

    Hi, what do you mean by 'reprints'? Good luck in your quest too!

    Good for you.
  • Reprint is a word more used in comics, books, and magazines. It is technically launch again the same product with the original features/material except that in some part you must display the actual year of manufacturing or something that make it different from the original or 1rst print. In comics books it can be in some part of the cover or in the 1rst page in the button. For comics the best example is Superman #75 Regular/Newstand Edition the one with the Superman cape as a flag. The reprints have a Roman numbers (II, III, etc) under the cover price.

    I'm not sure about other card series, but Topps in 1989 make it with the Batman 1966 cards. So be careful because in places like eBay, I saw some people selling the reprint/reissue as the originals.

    I asked because they never reprinted this set. They did however re issue the set
    with different colored backs, (pink/salmon) I was wondering if that was what he meant. The re issue was in 1968
    yet PSA classifies the set as 1958, also, and probably most important they are target moon and not Space cards.

    To the OP there are always many on ebay.

    Don't forget to mention the Salmon color backs were not re-issued complete. Topps skipped some numbers.
