Mostly low grade fun here, with six different Topps issues represented and the summary as follows. Some low, low grade examples are among 33 cards from 1954-55, with halfway decent notables being Rangers 3-Howell, 11-Bathgate, 32-Henry RC and 41-Stanley, with however none of the foursome making it to VG. Also some abused cards in a lot of 29 from '57-58, with Pilote and Vasko rookie cards standing out, the former free of unsightly creases but low grade due to paper loss near the bottom and the latter a decent VG. The cards from the '60s improve condition-wise, with '61-62 examples totalling 21 and including two VG Pilotes, a pen-marked but crease-free checklist and a low grade (P) Glenn Hall. Mostly Fair to VG are 22 blue-bordered cards from '62-63, including RCs of 3-Gamble (F), 49-Neilson (VG) and 60-Hadfield (P-F), along with a Rangers team card (F). An EX Black Hawks team card stands out among (30) '63-64 entries, with duplicates of the Bruins team (both G) and one of the Rangers (F). A stain in the border affects an otherwise VG card of 63-Ratelle, while VG-VG+ HOFers are 5-Boivin, 48-Howell and 52-Bathgate. The nicest overall, most plentiful (53) and most interesting/valuable lot is from '66-67, with the majority in the VG to VG+ range and a few better/worse. A second year Ed Giacomin is crease-free and VG+, while 67-Laperriere makes it to EX. Keon, Stanley, Mikita (G), Kelly, Ullman and Delvecchio are among the Hall-of-Famers, with a marked and otherwise G checklist #66 also present.
