Original unopened rack pack of forty-two 1975 Topps Baseball cards with Hall of Famer George Brett's rookie card showing on top. As well as the rookie card of Brett, the 1975 Topps set features many other stars, including Mike Schmidt, Hank Aaron, Robin Yount (rookie), Gary Carter (rookie), and Jim Rice (rookie). This is only the second 1975 Topps rack pack with Brett's rookie showing on top that we have offered in the last eighteen years. The first appeared as Lot 1706 in REA's Spring 2021 auction, realizing $18,000. This pack comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (Steve Hart), the foremost expert on unopened material. The pack displays well overall, with normal crimping along the plastic edges. The Brett rookie inside the pack has a factory printing flaw on the left portion of the card. This is a superb original unopened rack pack from one of the most popular of all 1970s Topps issues. It would be a worthy addition to even the most advanced collection of 1975 Topps or unopened material. Reserve $1,000.
