Lot # 1839: 1967 Topps "Who Am I?" Unopened Wax Pack PSA NM-MT 8

Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Original unopened five-cent wax pack from the 1967 Topps "Who Am I" series. Unopened packs for this set are scarce, and relatively few examples have come to auction in recent years. The 1967 Topps "Who Am I" set is one of the most unusual and interesting sets ever produced by Topps. The set features many important figures in world history, including presidents, inventors, and athletes, each with a scratch-off disguise, and clues to help kids identify the famous person. The back of each issued card has additional clues and instructions to "Scratch off disguise on front to discover Who I Am. Use a coin or fingernail." To sports collectors, this set is highlighted by four Hall of Fame baseball players: Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, and Sandy Koufax, but most of the set is comprised of very important historical figures such as Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, Thomas Edison, and Albert Einstein. The pack displays a beautiful full-color wrapper and tight seal. According to PSA, card #39 Florence Nightingale is showing through the wrapper on the back. This is an exceptionally scarce wax pack from this popular 1960s Topps sport and nonsport issue, which would be an outstanding addition and ideal accompaniment to any "Who Am I" set or collection.
