November 19, 2020: Fall Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/19/2020
Offered is an empty case from early 1970s Topps Baseball, with the exact year undetermined. The empty case at one time boasted the presence of 24 boxes of 24 packs that sold for a mere 10-Cents each. The box is in Fair condition, with some paper loss to one panel, along with in-house pen or pencil markings; comes with a 7 ½-by-3 ½-inch Topps mailing label addressing the case to the legendary Larry Fritsch in Stevens Point, Wis. That’s the kind of provenance that collectors like, linking an important Topps artifact to arguably the most prolific collector in hobby history.
