Winter 2014 Auction Closing Feb 7
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/8/2014
Offered is an extremely high graded set, fresh to the hobby with superb overall eye appeal. As with the 1959 and 1960 Topps sets in this auction, we feel this set might have been a Topps Presentation Set removed from their original boxes. Our consignor had additional cards from other years (including duplicates), but no duplicates from these three very high grade sets. A total of 9 cards have been graded and encapsulated by PSA. Includes: Graded Cards - PSA NM-MT+ 8.5: 2 cards w/#44 AL HR Leaders (Mantle) and 228 Yankees Team; PSA NM-MT 8: 5 cards w/#287 Yaz, 300 Mantle, 344 Koufax, 350 Banks and 475 Mantle MVP (PD); PSA NM 7: 1 card, #517 McCovey; PSA EX-MT 6: 1 card, #200 Spahn.
