Lot # 2586: 1972 Topps Football Complete Set (351)

Complete 351-card set of 1972 Topps football, highlighted by all of the stars and Hall of Famers of the era, including Roger Staubach (rookie), Rayfield Wright (rookie), Joe Namath, and Terry Bradshaw. The scarce high-number series (#264-351) makes complete 1972 sets relatively rare for the era. The condition of the low- and middle-number cards (#1-263) is 11% Nr/Mt to Nr/Mt-Mt, 51% Ex to Ex-Mt, and 38% Vg to Vg-Ex (including a couple lesser and one that measures small). The condition of the high-number cards (#264-351) is 34% Nr/Mt to Nr/Mt-Mt (including one Mint), 36% Ex to Ex-Mt, and 30% Vg to Vg-Ex (including one that measures small). Five cards have been professionally graded and encapsulated by PSA (one by SGC). Keys: #13 Riggins RC (Vg-Ex), 55 Manning RC (Ex), 65 Plunkett RC (20/80 L/R, otherwise Nr/Mt-Mt), 93 Hendricks RC (Ex), 100 Namath (Ex), 110 Sayers (Vg-Ex+), 150 Bradshaw (Vg), 160 Simpson (Nr/Mt), 165 Unitas (Nr/Mt+), 170 Butkus (Ex), 200 Staubach RC (Vg-Ex), 244 Joiner RC (Vg-Ex), 266 Wright AP (Nr/Mt+), 277 Eller AP (SGC NM/MT+ 8.5), 280 Lilly AP (MINT 9), 291 Spurrier RC (Nr/Mt), 308 Morrall (NM-MT 8), 316 Wright RC (Vg), 334 Taylor (NM-MT 8), 336 Marshall (NM 7), and 343 Namath Action (Nr/Mt). A very attractive mid- to high-grade complete set of this popular early 1970s Topps football issue. Total: 351 cards.
