Topps loves the game cards.
This was a foldable scratch-off game card featuring 24 different player mugshots on the front.
Jim Spencer is the only Angel in this set.
Unfolded the card requires a coin to scratch off the black boxes revealing a baseball "action".
Try to avoid getting 3 outs!
You can keep score on the back of the card.
This same set came out in 1971 with the same players, the difference being the 1970 cards have a white center (as shown above) and the 1971 a red center.
Here's my 1971 Jim Spencer with the red center:
I also have a copy that's scratched off, to show you how the game worked:
I would have to assume that the order of actions are different per card.
Otherwise the game would always end up in a tie!
Now all of you who gave away your dupes of these without opening them up to see two different variations are kicking yourselves.
I actually had this 1971 red version in my giveaway box, as a dupe for the 1970 card, for a long time.
Scratch-offs are so cool.
I've looked at and collected these for years and never played the game
