Description: DESCRIPTION: A sharp example graded well after PSA raised their grading standards over the pandemic. One owner since 1967 (read below). Clean edges and corners, bright color, just some centering issues and the black-line print flaw near the bottom edge on front.PROVENANCE: I recently began assisting a local retired professional with his vast childhood collection of sports cards, sports memorabilia, books, and toys (partially shown in last pic). He kept nearly everything he acquired as a kid, including packaging ephemera. He personally pulled this card from a pack of 1967 Topps, and he still has the wax box it came out of. He arranged all his cards, mostly from 1966-1975, in neat stacks in shoe boxes--and they have been stored in a highly organized fashion just like that for 50+ years in smoke-free, climate-controlled homes. Remarkably, until we submitted this card for grading, it had never been inside any kind of sleeve. Never in a penny sleeve, never in a toploader, never in an album, never in a screwdown or one-touch. He also never attempted to sell his cards before now; they've never been handled at card shops, shows, or garage sales. A truly pack-fresh vintage Topps card with one original owner. SHIPPING: Price includes insurance. Shipped securely in bubble wrap/cardboard via USPS First Class/Ground Advantage. ** See other highlights from this collection (if not in store, then sold): CARD: 1966 Topps Hank Aaron RUB-OFFS PSA 9CARD: 1966 Topps Roberto Clemente PSA 7CARD: 1966 Topps Harmon Killebrew PSA 8CARD: 1966 Topps Mickey Mantle PSA 8CARD: 1967 Topps Mickey Mantle PSA 8.5CARD: 1967 Topps Tom Seaver RC PSA 8CARD: 1967 Topps Rod Carew RC PSA 6 CARD: 1968 Topps Nolan Ryan RC PSA 7CARD: 1968 Topps Johnny Bench RC PSA 7CARD: 1970 Topps Roberto Clemente PSA 9 (only one at 10) CARD: 1974 Nabisco Sugar Daddy Kareem Abdul-Jabbar PSA 9 POSTER: 1969 Topps Team Posters (various teams)WRAPPER: 1966-1975 Topps Wax Pack Wrappers (listed by year)BOX: 1966-1975 Topps Empty Display Wax Box (listed by year, with variations) BOX: 1967 Leaf Star Trek Empty Display Wax Box (SCARCE) BOX: 1969 Topps Mod Squad Empty Display Wax Box WK
