Presented is a crisp and clean complete set of 1968 Topps, highlighted by the rookie cards of Hall of Famers Nolan Ryan and Johnny Bench. The 1968 Topps set also includes the extremely popular “combo” cards featuring more than one player with #480 Managers Dream (with Roberto Clemente), #490 Superstars (Harmon Killebrew, Mickey Mantle, and Willie Mays), and #530 Bird Belters (Frank and Brooks Robinson). Condition is 25% Nr/Mt to Nr/Mt-Mt (including a couple Mint), 19% Ex-Mt, 52% Vg-Ex to Ex, and 4% lesser (mostly Vg and including a couple with a slight miscut). We have selected three cards for grading and encapsulation by SGC. Keys: #20 B. Robinson (Ex), 45 Seaver (Ex-Mt), 50 Mays (1/99 T/B, otherwise Ex-Mt), 80 Carew (Ex), 100 Gibson (Ex), 110 Aaron (Vg-Ex), 150 Clemente (slightly miscut right edge, otherwise Ex), 177 Ryan RC (NM 7), 220 Killebrew (Vg+), 230 Rose (95/5 L/R, otherwise Ex-Mt), 240 Kaline (2/98 L/R, otherwise Vg-Ex+), 247 Bench RC (NM 7), 250 Yastrzemski (Ex), 280 Mantle (EX/NM 6), 330 Maris (Ex+), 355 Banks (Vg-Ex+), 370 Aaron AS (Vg-Ex+), 374 Clemente AS (Ex-Mt), 408 Carlton (Ex+), 480 Manager's Dream (Vg-Ex+), 490 Superstars (Vg+), 500 F.
