1969–71 Fleer Quiz Cards Inserts

Issued over a nine-year period from 1969 to 1977, the Fleer Baseball Cloth Patches were packaged each year with a card that served as a stiffener, although the packs do not acknowledge the cards. Remarkably, the stiffeners may hold more collectible value than the patches themselves.

Basic Features

During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Fleer baseball card packs included cloth team patches. Because these patches could easily become bent or damaged inside the wax packs, Fleer added a cardboard insert to help protect them.

While the basic concept remained the same each year—a team logo paired with baseball trivia—the designs and layouts changed slightly from year to year. As a result, collectors distinguish between the 1969, 1970, and 1971 versions when assembling complete Fleer patch and insert collections.
