1962 Fleer Football Cards
The 1962 Fleer set contains 88 cards of American Football League players. Many of the cards exhibit production problems, especially off-centering and wax on the back. The cards were printed on a 264-card sheet, so each card appeared on the sheet three times, with no short prints or double prints. You can see the configuration of a full sheet on the Gallery's 1962 Fleer virtual uncut sheet page. Also see my blog article, F is for Fleer, for an overview of the 1960-1963 Fleer football card sets.
