Limited interest - for the 78T BB Collectors

I picked up this cool blank back proof set today. The partial print almost looks like an artist's painting.

Now, I wonder if the "keys" will surface - the prices on some will go thru the roof if centered!

    The Topps Vault often sells proof sets and original art from cards on ebay.

    Some great stuff if you're a player collector. I guess the vault was getting too full.

    I got the item from the Toppsvault as a BIN item. The only thing that surprised me was the fact that they didn't include a COA. I'm going to email them - they always provide one. Currently, they have a special where all BIN items have FREE SHIPPING!

    I'm a big proof fan - especially the panels.

    Would PSA grade these proofs?

    That's what I was thinking. Look what some of their wacky packages original art is bringing. That's downright wacky!!

    The Eddie Murray Proof Rookie sold last year on ebay from The Toppsvault. I own 3 of the Carew Proofs.

    The 1969 Topps Deckle Proof
    The 1974 Topps # 50 very sweet!! GAI didn't grade it for me but they did give me a sticker with my own number declaring it authentic last year.
    And i have the 1978 Carew with the back of the card Proof.

    Carew
    The stars sell for a bit of change!

    For those who like proofs, I have picked up quite a few of the 73T candy lid proofs.

    They're just kind of cool and something different from the regular issue cards. And not too bad in terms of cost.

    Thanks for the tip Mike. Picked up this 74 Sixers Fred Carter proof. Can't beat the price.
