1971 Topps #499 Checklist: 524-643
About this card
This is one of the seven checklist cards (#54, #123, #161, #206, #369, #499 and #619). Six of them list one print series each, and every series checklist after the first was printed in the series before the one it lists - #123 lists the second series and is a first-series card. #161 is the checklist for the Topps coins insert, not a series checklist. Four of them - #123, #206, #369 and #619 - come in more than one printing.
