1966 Topps #303 Cleveland Indians
The front comes in two printing states - a red dot versus no dot between the '5TH PLACE' and 'AMERICAN LEAGUE' lines - and both are tracked here.
About this card
Nineteen team cards cover twenty clubs - Houston has none. Three of them, #303 Indians, #326 Braves and #404 Pirates, were printed with and without a dot between the standings line and the league name in the band at the foot of the front, and both states are tracked here.
The story on this card
This team card reports on the 1965 Cleveland Indians, who finished fifth in the American League at 87-75 under manager Birdie Tebbetts, fifteen games behind the champion Minnesota Twins. It was a quietly strong season: Cleveland was the only club to win its season series against the pennant-winning Twins, and the 87-75 mark stood as the best record the Indians would post between 1959 and 1994. The team played that summer at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. The front comes in two printing states - a red dot versus no dot between the '5TH PLACE' and 'AMERICAN LEAGUE' lines - and both are tracked here. Card #303 belongs to print series four of the 1966 Topps set.

Graded population — a scarcity guide, not a price. Data as of 2026-09-04. Half grades fold down for both graders (8.5→8); PSA qualified slabs (OC, ST, PD, MC and the like) are not counted. Where a grader registers a variation separately its population is listed under that variation; PSA slabs whose label names no variation are listed as not designated, while SGC slabs whose label names no variation are counted under 303a - No Dot Between "Place" And "American". Where SGC registers no separate row for a variation state, its slabs of that card are listed under the base state.
