When we start talking about vending boxes from the 1960s, we are in extremely scarce territory. One of the rarest vending boxes we have ever offered, this 1968-69 Topps Hockey Vending Box has 500 cards inside. The Complete set is just 132 cards, so all cards are available in this box a few times over. Some of the game’s greats like Orr, Hull, Mikita, Sawchuk, Parent, Horton, Esposito and Cheevers are in this set. With values in the thousands for GEM MINT 10’s on some of these cards, this box has high-end potential. Take your time opening this one! The box has been authenticated and shrink-wrapped by Steve Hart of Baseball Card Exchange, who noted that this box originated from Larry Fritsch Cards.
