Product Highlight: 1993 Topps/McDonald’s All Time Greatest Team Trading Card Glasses

McDonald’s has been making collectible drinking glasses for decades.  I never really got into them, except for when they made a set for the movie Batman Forever in 1995.  Topps and McDonald’s teamed-up in 1993 to bring collectors a set of ten glasses.  Printed on each glass is a Topps baseball card.  If you purchased any Extra Value Meal with a Coke Classic you had the opportunity to buy one of these 16-ounce All Time Greatest Team Trading Card Glasses.  Each glass features the player’s facsimile signature too.

Here’s the checklist:

• #1 Nolan Ryan 1969 Topps #533
• #2 Johnny Bench 1970 Topps #660
• #3 Lou Gehrig 1961 Topps #405
• #4 Joe Morgan 1973 Topps #230
• #5 Cal Ripken Jr. 1985 Topps #704
• #6 Brooks Robinson 1961 Topps #10
• #7 Roberto Clemente 1961 Topps #388
• #8 Willie Mays 1957 Topps #10
• #9 Babe Ruth 1962 Topps #139
• #10 Carl Yastrzemski 1970 Topps #10

The first nine glasses were sold nationally.  In order to get the tenth glass, you needed to live in the Boston area.  That makes Carl Yastrzemski the rarest of them all.
