An instant collection of Montreal Expos cards produced by Topps and dating back to the time when the club transitioned from Jarry Park to the Olympic Stadium, this impressive stash includes master team sets from each of 30 consecutive seasons. That means all regular and “traded” cards are included, along with the sometimes-not-present “specials” (League Leader, All-Star, Record Breaker, etc. cards), with even cards that feature rookies from multiple teams present and accounted for – everything is here. Most notable amid the earlier issues is a 1977 Andre Dawson rookie card (EX) and Tim Raines (1981) and Pete Rose (1984) cards from traded sets. Condition throughout the 1970s and ‘80s entries is first-rate (other than the Dawson RC). Manager and team photo cards also contribute and the storage/presentation is also definitely noteworthy, with each and every card sleeved and in a toploader and separated by year in two big boxes. Each year has an identifying “header” card that reveals that our consignor obtained the bonanza from Ultimate Team Set, a North Carolina company. Kudos are in order – this is indeed an ultimate Montreal Expos Topps team set compilation that will provide countless memories and a fantastic trip back in time. In a word, fantastique!
