Unopened Packs and Boxes

Complete original 1977 Topps Baseball vending case containing twenty-four boxes with 500 cards per box for a total of 12,000 cards. This case has been carefully stored in unopened form for the past forty-one years! The 1977 Topps Baseball set includes rookie cards of Hall of Famers Andre Dawson and Bruce Sutter, as well as other Hall of Fame and star cards of Nolan Ryan, George Brett, Reggie Jackson, Pete Rose, and more. All the other stars of the day are also included. While it is impossible to provide guarantees with reference to grading of vending material, it would be hard to imagine that this case does not include a generous supply of Mint 9s and Gem Mint 10s of every player in the set. One of the top flaps of the outer box is not sealed (so one can actually see the vending boxes of cards inside if desired) but all the original boxes are intact and guaranteed unopened and unsearched. The case has light outer-box wear. Opening Bid $10,000. Estimate (open).
