A set featuring a checklist of 528-cards in total, the 1976 Topps football release is often regarded as one of the most important vintage releases of the era for the sport and is paced by the set rookie card of Chicago Bears running back, Walter Payton. Also including the rookie cards of other future Pro Football Hall of Fame inductees such as Robert Brazile, Randy Gradishar, Jack Lambert and Randy White, the set is also loaded with cards picturing players of the previous year's Super Bowl champion, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Offered here, we present this complete set of Topps' 1976 football release. Found to be in the overall high-grade condition state of EX-MT to NM throughout its entirety, all four (4) checklist cards as well as the team checklist cards that fall between #'s 451-478 are in their original unmarked state and are in a condition that is consistent with the rest of the set. For the key cards, included are those of 75-Bradshaw (EX-MT - slight "diamond cut" and off-center), 100-Franco Harris (EX-MT - tiny surface scratch at the top left corner), 148-Payton RC (EX-MT to NM - 80-20 centering), 158-R. White RC (EX-MT - tiny dent at the top right), 220-Lambert RC (EX-MT to NM), 245-Joe Greene (EX-MT to NM), 395-Staubach (EX-MT to NM), 427-Jones RC (EX-MT to NM) and 500-Tarkenton (VG to VG-EX - printers marks over the front of the card plus ding at top right corner).
