Unopened Packs and Boxes
Complete original unopened wax box of 1982 Topps baseball. The box houses thirty-six wax packs, with each pack containing fifteen cards, for a total of 540 cards. The 1982 Topps set includes the rookie cards of Cal Ripken and Lee Smith, and many other Hall of Famers including Nolan Ryan, Rickey Henderson, and Ozzie Smith. All the other stars of the day are also included. While it is impossible to provide guarantees with reference to grading of unopened material, there is, of course, the very real possibility that within this box are Gem Mint cards. The display box shows light shelf wear and comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material). Total: 36 packs. Reserve $200.
