Another old-time auction lot, loaded with value and veritably screaming for close examination and careful attention. Six cards have been third-party slabbed and graded: 1958 Topps Eddie Mathews All-Star – PSA 3, 1967 Topps Rose – PSA 4, 1967 Topps Palmer – PSA 3, 1969 Topps Reggie Jackson rookie – PSA 3, 1972 Topps Nolan Ryan – PSA 2 and 1973 Topps Mike Schmidt rookie – PSA 3. There are five dozen nice condition 1960 Topps stars, minor stars and commons across all series, basically an Ex to Ex-Mt grouping, and there are 13 truly pristine 1975 Topps Minis, almost all Nr-Mt, a grouping that includes Aaron, Reggie Jackson, Munson, Bench, Rose, Parker (2), Winfield, Seaver, Yastrzemski and MVP’s 1954. In reference to the 1975 Topps Minis, the slabbed cards and in the listings that follow, any player named would refer to his regular-issue mainstream card unless otherwise noted. The breakdown: 1973 Rose – Ex and 1975 Rose – VG; 1961 Drysdale – Ex-Mt and 1969 Drysdale – Ex; 1967 Bob Gibson – Ex and 1968 Gibson – Ex; 1968 Yastrzemski – Ex-Mt o/c and 1973 Yastrzemski – Ex; 1973 Carew – Ex-Mt; 1970 Carlton (2) – Ex and VG; 1974 Ryan – Ex-Mt, 1975 Ryan – Ex and 1978 Ryan – Nr-Mt o/c; 1970 Seaver – Ex-Mt (diamond cut), 1971 Seaver (2) – Ex and VG, 1978 Seaver – Nr-Mt, and 1979 Seaver – Nr-Mt; 1974 Reggie Jackson – Ex, 1976 Jackson – Ex-Mt, 1977 Jackson – Ex, 1978 Jackson – Nr-Mt, 1978 Jackson Record Breaker – Ex-Mt, and 1981 Jackson (2) – both Nr-Mt; 1966 Brooks Robinson – Ex and 1970 Brooks Robinson – VG; 1974 Bench – Ex-Mt o/c, and 1976 Bench – Ex-Mt; 1978 Munson – Ex-Mt; 1975 Brock – Ex and 1978 Brock Record Breaker No. 1 – Ex-Mt; 1965 Roger Maris – Ex-Mt, 1966 Maris – VG, 1967 Maris – Good and 1968 Maris – Ex-Mt; four (4) 1973 Topps All-Time All-Stars – Ruth, Gehrig, Wagner and Ted Williams – basically Ex-Mt; and 22 other vintage Topps 1960-1970s.
