Dexter Press baseball card sets of 1966-68 are amongst the highest quality baseball cards ever printed. The West Nyack New York based company made 4” by 5-7/8” team sets but is best known perhaps for the series of (228) 5-1/2” by 7” premiums it produced for Coca-Cola in 1967. Collectors opened bottles of Coke Fanta Fresca Sprite or Tab to find black and white head shots of their local players or one of 25 All-Stars on the underside of the bottle caps then glued them into matching spaces on a “cap-saver sheet.” When your 35-cap sheet was finished you could trade it in for one set of 12 Dexter oversized premium photos of your local team or in non-major league areas 12 All-Star photos.
Presented here is a 1967 New York Yankees complete set of 12 Dexter oversized premium photos. The set ranges from EX-NM-MT averaging NM with the key Mantle card about EX. You’d be hard pressed to find a more visually impressive card issue from the era.
