Here is an imposing accumulation of cards from the 1970 Topps Baseball issue, the first issue of the 1970’s decade. This array represents 76 percent of a complete set and is a solid Excellent to Nr-Mt, with some below and the emphasis to Ex-Mt. In addition, there are about six dozen cards from the difficult high-number series. About 100 cards have the kind of centering that might typically prompt an upgrade, though not all of those would be severe enough to dictate a formal off-center designation. Breakdown of keys: No. 1 Mets Team – VG, 9 Checklist – VG-Ex, 12 Wilhelm – Ex-Mt, 10 League Leaders, 129 Checklist – Ex-Mt, four Playoff Subset cards, 291 Durocher – Ex-Mt, six World Series subset cards, 330 Brock – Ex, 345 Checklist – Ex-Mt, 346 Schoendienst – Nr-Mt o/c, 380 Perez – Ex-Mt, 403 Bunning – Nr-Mt, 440 Mazeroski – Ex-Mt o/c, 450 McCovey All-Star – Ex-Mt-Plus, 449 Palmer – Ex-Mt-Plus, 12 All-Stars, and 565 Hunter – VG-Ex.
