Description

Complete, original unopened cello box of 1975 Topps baseball. This box originates directly from the legendary Larry Fritsch estate. It comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material) and bears the certified designation as having originated from the "Fritsch Vault." The box houses 24 cello packs, with each pack containing 18 cards, for a total of 432 cards. The 1975 Topps set includes the rookie cards of Hall of Famers George Brett, Robin Yount, Gary Carter, and Jim Rice, and many other stars, including Schmidt, Aaron, Ryan, Winfield, and Jackson. The colored flush-to-the-border design of the 1975 Topps set makes this issue particularly challenging to collect in extremely high grade. The store display box has bright colors and moderate shelf wear, including the perforated portion of the lid pushed in a bit. This is an incredible and extremely rare unopened cello box from this very popular set.
