Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Winter 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/28/2023
A wealth of thoughts and possibilities are brought forth by this tantalizing offering, with of course the thought of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson appearing on the same “ultimate” rookie card at the top of the list. For the unknowing, the style of Topps’ unique three-section cards of 1980-81 is depicted on the wax pack wrappers, with thus eight standard-size trading cards and a team mini-poster (pin-up) joining a piece of gum in each pack. Joining Bird and Johnson on the set’s most-notable list and similarly appearing on multiple different “trios” are legends Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Julius Erving, Rick Barry, Moses Malone and others. One pack here was deemed worthy of MINT 9 recognition, with the majority (20 packs) arriving back from PSA premises in thick, impressive slabs labeled “NM-MT 8.” Another five packs received NM 7 verdicts, while ten packs were returned after being inspected and not graded, a note accompanying each stating “popped seal.” Popping into your head are surely the multiple decisions to be made when this colorful jackpot is secured and delivered. No obvious scratches to the PSA holders are to report.
