This 27-card set celebrates the World Champions won by the NY Yankees. There is one card celebrating each year the Yankees won the World Series, and a star of that World Series. The cards that predate Topps releasing cards, will be issued in the style of their classic 1952 Topps set. The cards that are later will be beautiful reproductions of the original Topps cards. Each card will have on the back some history of the series in the theme of this complete collection, and will be numbered from 1-27. Made in USA.
