Presented is a complete set of the popular 1968 Topps Hockey issue, the colorful horizontal effort from than a half-century ago. The offered set is largely unimprovable, a glistening Near-Mint or better blazer, with sharp colors and gloss and HOFers and stars that conform to the wider condition range. Perhaps three dozen or so specimens have the kind of centering that might prompt thoughts of an upgrade, though not all of those would be severe enough to dictate a formal off-center designation. Breakdown of keys: No. 1 Cheevers – Ex-Mt, 2 Orr – Ex-Mt-Plus o/c, 7 Esposito – Nr-Mt o/c, 9 – Nr-Mt m/c, 14 – Nr-Mt m/c, 16 Hull – Nr-Mt, 20 Mikita – Nr-Mt, 29 Howe – Nr-Mt, 42 – Nr-Mt m/c, 93 – Nr-Mt m/c, 90 Parent Rookie – Nr-Mt to Mt m/c, 100 – Nr-Mt m/c, 117 – Nr-Mt m/c and 121 Checklist – Good.
