This beauty starts off with Tommy John (No. 264) and runs all the way through Ken Forsch (No. 394), with lots of great cards in between. For starters, Hank Aaron and Roberto Clemente base cards and In Action singles are in this series, along with Felipe Alou, Gaylord Perry, Jim Palmer, Willie McCovey, Luis Aparicio, Earl Weaver, Catfish Hunter, Willie Stargell (Boyhood Photo), Tom Seaver (Boyhood Photo), Sparky Anderson and plenty of others. This is a dream come true for collectors serious about the PSA Set Registry and one of these hasn't popped up on the auction circuit for several years. This is the best chance you'll have to get some big-time high grades and boost your registry averages. This one was was consigned by the original owner, who purchased it directly from Topps back in 1972 and it's been stored in the same place since it was purchased. 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.
