Description

Offered are five sets of five extremely rare "Presentation Boxes" relating to the 1959 through 1963 Topps baseball sets. These twenty-five boxes, which originally housed five complete series for each of 1959 through 1963 Topps, were specially created by Topps in extremely limited numbers exclusively for special presentations of baseball cards to ballplayers and dignitaries. Each fancy box (2.75 x 3.75 x 2 inches), which represents a different series (1st through 5th), has "Limited Edition - Baseball Picture Cards - Collectors Set - Topps Chewing Gum Inc." in gold lettering on the front and side panels. The boxes were nearly identical from year to year, except for the color: red in 1959, black in 1960, green in 1961, blue in 1962, and brown in 1963. The boxes are in Excellent to Near Mint condition overall, with a few slightly lesser. This is an extremely rare, almost-never-seen collection of Topps baseball "Presentation Boxes", which would be an ideal accompaniment to any high-grade 1959-1963 Topps collection. Total: 25 boxes. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
