This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.

Bill Forester #71 1961 Fleer

That's odd - the drawing of the State of WI is backwards on his card!
Yes. The entire 1961 Fleer Packers card set has the state of Wisconsin printed backwards. Starr, Hornung, Taylor, Forester, Ringo, Kramer, Moore, McGee, Dowler, Jordan and the Packers Team card. I guess Vince hadn't successfully put us on the map yet :dunno:
Are these cards now more valuable than others because of this flaw?

Back in the day I would run into Koch often at GB area night spots. He was always the gentleman. :)

Not really. 1961 Topps Packers cards are priced similarly to 1961 Fleer Packers cards. Here's the price guide prices from the psacard website.

Not a lot of good choices for #67!

Mean on Sunday!!! :hail:

The only other even remotely notable #66 for the Packers is Deral "Little Bull" Teteak who played linebacker from 1952-1956:

I could post Mark Tauscher, but aren't we all tired of him by now? ;)

Also for the other countdown:

Here's Fuzzy again! Note Masters at Left Tackle and Moore at Halfback. Fuzzy, Ringo, J. Kramer, Gregg and R. Kramer up front with Masters. Taylor at Fullback. And McGee at Left End and Dowler at Flanker. Of course, Bart Starr at Quarterback. Interesting play .... instead of pulling guards you have Kramer (guard) and Masters (tackle) pulling on the sweep play with Moore carrying the ball.

A lot of Jack Vainisi influence on the this football card. A Ray Scott special.
