Originally issued in one-card penny packs and billed by Topps as "A gimmick penny baseball series," these cards call to mind the 1911 Mecca "Double Folder" cards which featured two players. Unfolded, these cards measure 2 1/16" x 4 7/8" and depict illustrated players set against a stadium background. When folded, the player image on the reverse becomes the front, sharing the same legs and feet of the player image on the front. When placed side-by-side in numerical order, the card backgrounds form a single continuous scene.

This offering is the Ted Kluszewski and Jim Owens issue in a wonderfully high grade. Ted Kluszewski is the main image, with nice centering and bold, bright colors. Edges are crisp and corners are sharp, with only a faint bit of staining near the perimeter, and some more near the statistics on the Owens side. An excellent opportunity to acquire a difficult early Topps issue.

SGC has only ever graded 50 total examples of this 1955 Topps Double Header, with only four receiving a higher grade than the NM+ 7.5 offered here of Ted Kluszewski and Jim Owens.
