This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 4/2/2015
Just like an adjacent Bowman grouping, this resembles an old-time auction lot, with a nice sampling of vintage Topps cards for the years 1953-56 in varying grades and including several Hall of Famers, stars and minor stars. The condition for the first three years is generally Good to Very Good, with some above and below, with the 1956 Topps array a bit better at closer to Good to Excellent. Here’s the breakdown: 1953 Topps (41) – No. 1 Jackie Robinson (Poor), 2, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 16, 18, 22, 23, 26, 31, 32, 33, 35, 36, 38, 45, 46, 47, 51, 53, 56, 59, 63, 64, 70, 74, 84, 85, 98, 105, 108, 110, 116, 124, 171, 173, 180 and 211; 1954 Topps (16) – No. 4, 8, 21, 30 Mathews, 34, 64, 93, 98, 100, 110, 114, 154, 161, 219, 225 and 228; 1955 Topps (36) – No. 14, 15, 18, 23, 24, 34,52, 53, 59, 61, 62, 65, 70, 77, 80, 83, 84, 87, 94, 99, 100 Irvin, 117, 119, 120, 122, 127, 128, 134, 139, 140, 151, 153, 154, 157, 172 and 183: 1956 Topps (36) – No. 4, 12, 18, 20 Kaline, 46, 52, 66, 72 Phillies Team, 73, 81, 86, 102, 103, 104, 119, 132, 134 Cardinals Team, 137, 143, 148, 149, 162, 180 Roberts, 196, 209, 215, 216, 228, 277, 285, 286, 299 Neal, 307 Wilhelm, 324, 330 and 333.
