Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2021
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/23/2021
A tempting elongated Topps hockey card “brick” is offered up here, with “BIGGEST SERIES EVER!” on the front panel bringing forth the story of Topps’ dramatic increase in set size, with the company increasing its issue up to 330 cards, not to be matched until the early-1990s. With a goaltender depiction reminiscent of Gary “Suitcase” Smith, the box contains 36 packs (up from the usual 24) that each includes ten cards. GAI has done the authenticating, encapsulating and grading, arriving at a mark of NM+ 7.5. Light wear at the corners is visible, with a semi-circular bend (like a “back” crease) in the box top (middle of the top (perforated) section) noted for accuracy but not detectable at arm’s length. All-in-all, another beauty for unopened aficionados!
