Lot # 1640: 1971 Topps Complete Set (752)

Crisp and clean 1971 Topps set, at 752 cards the largest set of Topps cards issued up to that time. The black flush-to-the-border design of the 1971 Topps set makes this issue particularly challenging to collect in extremely high grade. Condition is 33% Ex-Mt to Nr/Mt (including a few Nr/Mt-Mt) and 67% Vg-Ex to Ex (including a few lesser, ten trimmed, and thirty-three with color added). Keys: #5 Munson (Ex-Mt+), 20 Jackson (trimmed right edge, otherwise Vg-Ex+), 26 Blyleven RC (color added, otherwise Vg), 100 Rose (trimmed top and right edges, otherwise Ex+), 117 Simmons RC (Nr/Mt+), 160 Seaver (Ex), 180 Kaline (trimmed left edge, otherwise Ex+), 250 Bench (trimmed left edge and 70/30 L/R, otherwise Nr/Mt), 341 Garvey RC (Ex+), 400 Aaron (trimmed right edge, otherwise Ex), 513 Ryan (trimmed top and left edges, otherwise Ex-Mt), 525 Banks (Ex), 530 Yastrzemski (Ex), 550 Killebrew (Ex+), 570 Palmer (Ex), 600 Mays (trimmed right edge, otherwise Ex), 625 Brock (trimmed right and bottom edges, otherwise Ex), 630 Clemente (trimmed top and right edges, otherwise Vg-Ex+), 640 F. Robinson (Ex), and 709 Baylor/Baker RC (trimmed left edge, otherwise Vg-Ex). Very attractive mid- to high-grade complete set. Total: 752 cards.
