Lot # 1654: 1967 Topps Complete Set (609)

The 1967 Topps set has always been extremely popular, featuring scores of stars and Hall of Famers from what is now fondly remembered by many baby boomers as the Golden Age of baseball cards. This set includes legends such as Mantle, Mays, Aaron, and Clemente, from an era before big money ruled the game and when the summer All-Star contests were composed almost exclusively of first-rate Hall of Famers. Condition is 29% Ex-Mt to Nr/Mt (including a few Nr/Mt-Mt), 52% Vg-Ex to Ex, and 19% Gd to Vg (including a couple lesser, a couple with a slight miscut, and a couple trimmed). Five cards have been professionally graded and encapsulated by PSA (3), BVG (1), and GAI (1).
