Hall of Fame week: The most Hall of Famers, update 14

 

Here's another update to my series where I figure out the number of Hall of Famers in each Topps flagship set, which will end in discovering which set has the most. (Yeah, I know, "1983").

I just did one of these in July and I said I'd have another one on the occasion of the Hall induction ceremony this week. I'm trying to speed up these posts because they're getting long and also I want a final answer soon.

Today I am adding three sets in honor of three of the inductees: Ted Simmons, Larry Walker and Derek Jeter. I chose a set to include that featured these players. I selected 1979 for Simmons, 1991 for Walker and 2006 for Jeter.

You know the drill. I am listing only players/managers who were playing/managing at the time the set came out. So, for example, Mickey Mantle's inclusion in the 2006 set will not count toward the total because he wasn't ... um, even alive in 2006. As I've said before, a card showing a player who eventually went into the Hall for his managing counts, and vice versa. I am not counting coach cards.

OK, here's the long litany with those three sets added:

1956 (34): Hank Aaron, Walter Alston, Luis Aparicio, Richie Ashburn, Ernie Banks, Yogi Berra, Roy Campanella, Roberto Clemente, Larry Doby, Bob Feller, Whitey Ford, Nellie Fox, Warren Giles, Will Harridge, Monty Irvin, Al Kaline, George Kell, Harmon Killebrew, Sandy Koufax, Bob Lemon, Mickey Mantle, Eddie Mathews, Willie Mays, Pee Wee Reese, Phil Rizzuto, Robin Roberts, Jackie Robinson, Red Schoendienst, Enos Slaughter, Duke Snider, Warren Spahn, Hoyt Wilhelm, Ted Williams, Early Wynn

Listing Chipper Jones for 1991 is a judgment call. Jones didn't make the majors until 1993 (and wasn't even a regular until 1995). But he's got his own card in '91 and he was an active player so I'll throw 1991 a bone.

With the addition of 2006, 24 Hall of Famers is now the lowest total, obviously because it's also the most recent. I've got 15 years worth of sets to do since '06. I plan to polish them off all in one post in the near future.

But before that, I think I'll wrap up the 1980s sets in the next MHOFers post, which will be in October.

Here is the leaderboard after adding those three sets. No big shake-up, 1979 barely squeezed in.

1. 1983 Topps - 50
2. 1984 Topps - 49
3. 1969 Topps - 48
4. 1971 Topps - 47
4. 1972 Topps - 47
4. 1973 Topps - 47
7. 1975 Topps - 45
7. 1978 Topps - 45
7. 1993 Topps - 45
10. 1979 Topps - 44
10. 1992 Topps - 44

 

Tomorrow is the first HOF induction ceremony since July 21, 2019. If you plan to watch, enjoy. I hope to catch some of it.

I'll have another Hall of Fame post tomorrow as well, of a more personal nature.
