Despite its advanced age of nearly 40 years, this is an absolute stunner, seemingly uncirculated and unimprovable cards that look much as they must have appeared coming directly off the presses. They are essentially Near-Mint to Near-Mint to Mint cards, with vivid colors, nice photo registration and typically good centering, all making for a wonderful, consistent presentation of an important early Topps issue. Possibly as uniform overall look as you could hope for in a vintage issue, with no discernible differences between the Tier One Hall of Famers and the rest of the group. A Near-Mint No. 110 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar card has been autographed, with the autograph being inconclusive.
