Lot # 1599: 1969 Topps Near-Complete Set (663/664)

Presented is a very attractive mid- to high-grade near-complete set (minus one) of 1969 Topps baseball, missing only #500 Mantle for completion. This near set is highlighted by the rookie cards of Oakland A's Hall of Famers Reggie Jackson and Rollie Fingers, plus Nolan Ryan, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Pete Rose, and other great stars of the era. Condition is 31% Nr/Mt or better (mostly Nr/Mt), 62% Ex to Ex-Mt, and 7% Vg to Vg-Ex (including a couple that measure a bit small and a few miscut). Four cards have been professionally graded and encapsulated by PSA.
