Presented is a 1999 Pokémon Jungle 1st Edition Factory-Sealed Unopened Booster Box (English Version) that includes 36 packs, each with 11 cards, for a total of 396 cards. The entire box comes factory shrink-wrapped by Wizards of the Coast. Released in 1999, Jungle is the second main expansion of cards of the Pokémon trading card game. Featuring Generation I Pokémon, Jungle includes 64 unique cards. The English version is notably bigger than the Japanese Jungle set, which includes 48 cards. This is because Wizards of the Coast decided to include non-holographic prints of the rare holographic cards. As a result the English expansion is larger and prevents packs from guaranteeing a holographic card. This booster box remains in Excellent condition, looking almost exactly as it did when it appeared on a toy-store shelf in 1999. There is a small tear of the plastic on top part of the box noted for accuracy. 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 extremely high-grade holographic cards from this series. This booster box would make a worthy addition to any nonsport, Pokémon, or trading card game collection. Reserve $5,000.
