OK...since it is Super Bowl Sunday, I thought I should post some new Super Bowl cards that I just finished. So, here are the next group:

1989 Topps Super Bowl IV

1989 Topps Super Bowl V

Here are the next batch of MVP cards as well. I have always thought it interesting that the MVP of Super Bowl V came from the losing team. Really illustrates the closeness of the game and the poor play.

1986 Topps Super Bowl IV MVP Len Dawson

1986 Topps Super Bowl V MVP Chuck Howley

OK, I'm really enjoying making these sets...so I have been focusing on them more lately. Here are the next three Super Bowls:

1989 Topps Super Bowl VI

1989 Topps Super Bowl VII

1989 Topps Super Bowl VIII

Here are the corresponding MVP cards:

1986 Topps Super Bowl VI MVP Roger Staubach

1986 Topps Super Bowl VII MVP Jake Scott

1986 Topps Super Bowl VIII MVP Larry Csonka

Thanks! The photos are actually the hardest part...some of them have pretty limited options in google searches. I want to find actual in game photos for all the cards. The games haven't been so bad but a few of the MVPs have been a little tricky.

OK...here are a few more:

1989 Topps Super Bowl IX

1989 Topps Super Bowl X

1986 Topps Super Bowl IX MVP Franco Harris

1986 Topps Super Bowl X MVP Lynn Swann

Super Bowl X MVP card...isn't that a picture of the awesome catch that Swan made falling to the ground, while bobbling the ball?

Super Bowl X MVP card...isn't that a picture of the awesome catch that Swan made falling to the ground, while bobbling the ball?

It is. I was hoping to find a good photo of it for this card. I think it's one of the most iconic play in super bowl history. Possibly the most famous play before the Tyree catch.

OK, here are the next two for each set:

1989 Topps Super Bowl XI


1989 Topps Super Bowl XII


1986 Topps Super Bowl XI MVP Fred Biletnikoff


1986 Topps Super Bowl XII MVP Harvey Martin/Randy White


I will admit...I don't love the Martin/White card. I really wanted to use in-action game photos and avoid using the general well known post-game photo of them together. I accomplished my goal...but the photos available were not the best to choose from. Overall, I'm happy with it...but it doesn't live up to what I had in my head before hand.

Old school Raiders fan?

Actually...I have a couple others done. To be perfectly honest...I have all the Super Bowl and MVP cards done through Super Bowl XX (I did XVIII, XIX, and XX today), I'm just posting them a couple at a time. So...Plunkett and Allen are already done.

 

[ranbethscards]

Plunkett!!!!!

 

[CamaroDMD]

Plunkett!!!!!

Well...I was planning on releasing them a couple at a time...but if you want Plunkett, here's some Plunkett.

Actually, I was really looking forward to getting to this part of the set. Joe Montana is my all-time favorite player and getting to his Super Bowls is fun for me.

1989 Topps Super Bowl XIII


1989 Topps Super Bowl XIV


1989 Topps Super Bowl XV


1989 Topps Super Bowl XVI


1986 Topps Super Bowl XIII MVP Terry Bradshaw


1986 Topps Super Bowl XIV MVP Terry Bradshaw


1986 Topps Super Bowl XV MVP Jim Plunkett


1986 Topps Super Bowl XVI MVP Joe Montana

 

[CamaroDMD]

OK, here are the next two Super Bowls:

1989 Topps Super Bowl XVII

1989 Topps Super Bowl XVIII

Now, the MVP cards. I will admit that at first I was a bit "lazy" with the Riggins. In 1982, the Redskins had a slightly different one year logo and at first I ignored that and I did the card with the logo they used from 72-81 and 83-Present. But, since the 1982 logo was worn in the game...I went back and changed it. Not a huge difference, but it bothered me.

1986 Topps Super Bowl XVII MVP John Riggins

1986 Topps Super Bowl XVIII MVP Marcus Allen
