Lot 575: 1968 Topps Baseball 2nd Series Wax Pack GAI 8.5 (Nolan Ryan Rookie Series)

ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $300.00
Winning Bid: $1,232.18
Price Realized: $1,472.46
Auction Date:11/30/2005 9:00 PM EST

The temptation of possibly pulling a Nolan Ryan’s rookie card from within a 1968 Topps 2nd series pack has proven far to great for many a man. A “Mint” Nolan Ryan rookie would bring $5,000+ at auction. The result has been an industry wide shortage of these outstanding specimens and, even more importantly now, a rare opportunity to own one. Graded an impressive GAI 8.5 Nm-Mt+, with other names such as Aaron and Clemente included in the series, this piece is just too good to pass up.
