Unopened Packs and Boxes
Complete, original unopened rack case of 1986 Topps football containing three boxes with twenty-four packs per box for a total of seventy-two packs. With each pack containing forty-nine cards, the case represents a total of 3,528 cards. This case comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material). The "factory-sealed" distinction is particularly important and makes the offered case even more impressive. The 1986 Topps set features rookie cards of Hall of Famers Jerry Rice, Steve Young, Reggie White, Andre Reed, and Bruce Smith, as well as numerous other stars and Hall of Famers, including Walter Payton, Joe Montana, and Boomer Esiason. While it is impossible to provide guarantees with reference to grading of unopened material, it would be hard to imagine that this case does not include a generous supply of Mint 9s and Gem Mint 10s of every player in the set, including Jerry Rice. Original factory seals intact with very minimal outer box wear. An excellent opportunity to acquire this 36-year-old factory-sealed rack case from the popular 1986 Topps football issue. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot. Reserve $10,000.
