Book value of 1980-81 Topps Basketball Team Posters Set?

frankhardy

Anybody have a Standard Catalog of Basketball Cards or a Tuff Stuff Basketball price guide? I was just curious as to the book value of a 1980-81 Topps Basketball Team Posters Set. Mine is in factory fresh MINT condition, except for centering. I would appreciate any help. One sold for $16+ on Ebay, but my set is in better condition. Just curious. Thanks.

Shane,
Does yours have the folds or did you acquire them "out of the pack"?

I'm guessing you mean the Team Pin-ups.
You both got me thinking about mine. I haven't looked at them in 20 years, had them stacked up in a pile about 3" high. Mine are 79-80 hockey and 80-81 basketball.
I could only put together 3 hockey sets as I only have 3 Kings. I have about 10-12 of the rest.
Basketball I don't have any Lakers and only one Celtics, at least 7-8 of the rest.

All of mine have creases and centering is awful! I see there isn't much market for these.

I also have one football, Jack Clancy, 16 of 16. Don't know the year. It's condition is poor.

Thanks for spurring my interest in these!

They do have the factory folds, but are otherwise crease free and very crisp. Centering is inconsistent. I think they are a neat, oddball item. Anybody have the book value?

I would think the ebay prices are more accurate than any "book value" would be. They aren't rare or in high demand so the $8-15 you see on ebay is about right.

Oh, I realize that. Just curious as to book value. I never go by it.
