    tough wrapper. Id guess around 250-400 depending on condition.
    Might be off but that doesnt sell to often

    No handyman. A one cent wrapper sold through Mears in 2010 for $40. It all depends on condition.

    Wrapper

    I would probably be a buyer around the $15-$20 range, and a seller around $30-$50.

    I sold a 1952 Topps wrapper in GREAT shape for around $90. No way would a 1957 wrapper be more than a 1952.

    I'll say!!! The basketball one is rare....

    Very. If you can get it for 200 or less snag it for resale. Tough wrapper. I think I remmember one once selling in the 400-500 range but cant remember when that was.

    Thanks for the info guys!

    Handyman, I think it would be higher than that....condition is everything though. If it is super clean, mint shape, who knows how much it would bring.....

    I dont know I think its in the 40.00 range now that youre interested in it.
    JK.
    I think 500.00 is a safe guess. Could be more but I wouldnt expect a crazy number like 1000.00. 500 feels safe to guess on this rare issue.
    Plus we dont know the condition of the pack.
