Violent images appearing on collectible cardboard were all the rage back in the 60’s. It didn’t matter if the pictures were of aliens invading Earth or graphic images of some of the most horrific battles in American history, these sets were popular. In 1962, Topps released an 88-card set entitled Civil War News which depicted many images from the Civil War. They were so detailed, parents were up in arms and didn’t want their children seeing so much violence. Ironically this made the set even more popular because whats more fun than going against something your parents don’t like? I thought this product would be appropriate since today is Memorial Day.
