Superb high-grade complete master set of fifty-six 1968 Kahn's Wieners cards. All fifty-six cards have been professionally graded and encapsulated by PSA as this set ranks first on the Set Registry with an impressive 8.59 GPA! This striking, colorful, and very scarce 1960s regional issue features players from the Braves, Cubs, Reds, Mets, Indians, Tigers, Pirates, and White Sox. Thirty-nine of the cards are the highest graded examples listed on the PSA Population Report, including eight of which are the only examples graded at that level with none higher.
