The 1966 Bazooka baseball card set is known as Bazooka Singles. It has a total of 48 cards, with a close-up profile or posed action shot of the player, name, team, position and number on the front. The backing is blank. Featured players include Sandy Koufax (1), Willie Horton (2), Mickey Mantle (7) and Willie Mays (16). In 1967, they also issued a 48-card set. If you're fortunate enough to find a complete box of 20 or 25 Bazooka 1-cent pieces with the cards still intact on the back of the package (they are extremely rare), it will also include an offer for a pair of "baseball glasses" or both the glasses and a "ball & strike indicator" on the 20-piece box.
