The 1974 Topps team set includes 20 player cards and continues the theme with league leaders, and play-off cards. Topps continued to employ an airbrush artist to hide team logos on helmets. Their work is best seen on the play-off action cards in this team set. Team checklist cards were issued for the first time, one per pack. The bottom of each CL card has details of how to obtain a complete un-cut sheet with all 26 teams.
The backs of the player cards in this set have statistical information, as well as a cartoon illustration depicting a fact about the player. The bottoms of these cards also double as a game piece to a football game, for which the rules are found on the back of the team checklist cards.
