Imagine taking all of the nickels and dimes you earned as a kid and buying as many packs of baseball cards as you could afford. Then for a second, think about socking them away and saving them for 40 years. This near miracle is the result-An unbelievable 1960’s, high-grade unopened pack run lacking just a 1962 and ’66 pack. All (14) are Topps baseball packs from 1960 to 1973. The following wax packs have all been graded by GAI, Global Authentication, 1960 2nd Series GAI “8.5 NM-MT+, 1961 GAI “9 Mint, 1963 6th Series GAI “9 Mint, 1964 “8.5 NM-MT+, 1965 1st Series “8.5 NM-MT+, 1967 3rd Series GAI “9 Mint, 1968 4th Series “8 NM-MT, 1969 “7.5 NRMT+, 1970 “8.5 NM-MT+, and a 1971 “8.5 NM-MT+.
