Packed with the rookie cards of Hall of Famers, it has become one of the the most coveted unopened materials in the hobby. First year cards from: Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, Nat Clifton, Bill Sharman, Paul Arizin, Dolph Schayes, Tom Heinsohn, Bob Pettit, and Maurice Stokes are possible. Graded NRMT+ (7.5) by GAI. A rarity among unopened packs. Even fewer boast such quality.
