Presented is an extremely rare original unopened wax box of 1961 Fleer football. The box houses twenty-four packs with each pack containing ten cards for a total of 240 cards. This is a second-series box (#133-220), a series that includes Jack Kemp, George Blanda, Tom Flores rookie, Jim Otto rookie, and Don Maynard rookie as well as numerous other stars and Hall of Famers. Referring to this box as rare might be understating how difficult it is to find for collectors of unopened material. This is the ONLY complete unopened wax box from this classic set that we have ever offered! The box comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material). The store display box is bright and bold with moderate shelf wear. This is a stunning unopened wax box that would make a superb addition to any football or unopened wax-box collection. Reserve $10,000.
