Presented is an extremely attractive complete final production 132-card uncut sheet from the popular 1977 Topps football issue. The sheet is arranged in twelve rows of eleven cards.

This superb uncut sheet from this classic football set, with several notable highlights, would be ideal for framing and display. Dimensions: 28-3/8 x 43 inches.
