NFL card enthusiasts will be enthused by this collection, led chronologically by complete 528-card sets from 1973 and 1974. The first is highlighted by rookie cards of Stabler (EX), Harris (EX+) and Ham (EX-MT), while the RCs of Rashad, Guy and Hannah appear in the latter, with legends Unitas, Staubach, Bradshaw, Tarkenton, O.J. and others appearing in both. Next are near sets from ’75 (Swann, Fouts, Theisman RCs) and ’77 (Largent RC, 2nd-year Payton), both missing just three cards each. A ’78 complete set (Dorsett, Stallworth RCs), near sets from ’79 (Campbell, Lofton RCs) and ’81 (no Montana RC present) and a complete ’82 set (Taylor, Lott RCs ) also feature a swell array of gridiron stars and legends. Minimal handling/wear throughout, with EX to NM cards the norm. Please see our website for additional details/photos.
Other than the Montana rookie, the only card of note missing is 170-O.J. Simpson from 1979 (525/528), with four other cards joining Montana on the 1981 not-present list. Meanwhile, a 3200-count box is not full, but with well over 400 cards from 1980, ’82 and ’83 and some 300 from ’84 and ’85. Stars and minor stars are to be discovered, along with a couple of other throw-ins. An interesting instant collection or swell dealer inventory is what it all adds up to – the ‘70s and ‘80s were great!
