1968 Topps #356 5th Series Checklist 371-457
About this card
The seven checklist cards (#67, 107, 192, 278, 356, 454, 518) each carry a player portrait in a circle beside the series title - Jim Kaat, Juan Marichal, Carl Yastrzemski, Orlando Cepeda, Ken Holtzman, Frank Robinson and Clete Boyer in order. Six of the seven exist in two states; #67 is the only checklist without a variation.
The story on this card
This checklist card lists the fifth series of the 1968 Topps set, cards 371 through 457, and puts Ken Holtzman's picture on the front. Holtzman came off a perfect 9-0 season for the Chicago Cubs in 1967 despite starting just twelve games while serving with the Illinois National Guard; several of his second-half starts came on weekend passes from active duty, and he finished undefeated behind heavy Cubs run support. Two printing states are separated by collectors: one with the head centered within the checklist circle, and one with the head shifted to the right within the circle. The hobby catalogs list the centered-head version first.

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 356a - Head Centered W/Circle. Slabs of the yellow team-letter #49 and #66 are 1968 Milton Bradley game cards and are not counted here.
