A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry
A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry Artie Zillante University of North Carolina Charlotte November 25th,2007 1Introduction If the attempt by The Upper Deck Company (Upper Deck) to purchase The Topps Company, Inc. (Topps) is successful, the baseball card industry will have come full circle in under 30 years. A legal ruling broke the Topps monopoly in the industry in 1981, but by 2007 the industry had experienced a boom and bust cycle1 that led to the entry and exit of a number of firms, numerous innovations, and changes in competitive practices. If successful, Upper Deck’s purchase of Topps will return the industry to a monopoly. The goal of this piece is to look at how secondary market forces have shaped primary market behavior in two ways. First, in the innovations produced as competition between manufacturers intensified. Second, in the change in how manufacturers competed. Traditional economic analysis assumes competition along one dimension, such as Cournot quantity competition or Bertrand price competition, with little consideration of whether or not the choice of competitive strategy changes. Thus, the focus will be on the suggested retail price (SRP) of cards as well as on the timing of product releases in the industry. Baseballcardshaveundergonedramaticchangesinthepasthalfcenturyastheindustryandthehobby have matured, but the last 20 years have provided a dramatic change in the types of products being produced. Prior to World War II, baseball cards were primarily used as premiums or advertising tools for tobacco and candy products. Information on the use of baseball cards as advertising tools in the tobacco and candy industries prior to World War II can be obtained from a number of different sources, including Kirk (1990) and most of the annual comprehensive baseball card price guides produced by Beckett publishing. -

Magazine of the American Society for Netherlands Philately Volume 36/1
Dated Journal Netherlands Philately 1308 Pin Oak Drive Dickinson, TX 77539-3400 USA Netherlands Philately Magazine of the American Society for Netherlands Philately Volume 36/1 Founded in 1975 NETHERLANDS PHILATELY Magazine of the American Society for Netherlands Philately; Volume 36/1 December 2011 Editor‟s message G‟day Dear Members, This is your first magazine of the new season. A double thick number to make up for the loss of the Septem- ber issue of the magazine. Due to my emigration to Australia I was not able to get the September number fin- ished on time. This means that this year not 6 but 5 issues of the Netherlands Philatelist will be in your mail- box, of which one is a double thick number. For most members, the dark cold days are in front of them and they probably won‟t mind the extra reading material. I have arrived safely in South Australia in the Adelaide region and started slowly to settle into the Aussie life style. The last few months a lot of things have happened to me as editor and for the ASNP club itself. Unfor- tunately we have lost two well-known members, George Vandenberg and Erik Roos. In this magazine you will find more information about them. I hope you will enjoy reading the new magazine and remember, if you have an article for us or want to write one let me know, as I‟ll be happy to publish it!
