August 8, 2013: Sports & Americana Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 8/8/2013
One of the most unusual sets the company ever produced, with psychedelic colors and graphics that were perfectly suited to the age. This grouping is essentially Excellent to Nr-Mt, with a substantial number that fall below that broader range; the emphasis is essentially Ex-Mt to Nr-Mt. The cards have good colors and photo focus and present a nice consistent look. The HOFers and stars tend to fall within the broader range, with some exceptions noted. There is some discernible falloff in condition in the hyper difficult high series, probably with an overall range more like Very Good to Ex-Mt.
The keys: 49 Mays – Good, 50 Mays In-Action – Good, 80 Perez – VG, 79 Fisk – Ex, 130 Gibson – Ex, 270 Palmer – Nr-Mt, 285 Perry – Ex, 299 Aaron – Ex, 309 Clemente Ex-Mt, 435 Jackson – VG, 445 Seaver – Ex o/c, 447 Stargell – Nr-Mt, 453 Bench – Nr-Mt, 556 Rose – Nr-Mt, 567 Marichal – VG and 595 Ryan – Good.
