  • I can never stop saying "Nice boxes" enough in my life. Those look beautiful!
    I collect vintage PSA graded SF Giants, Willie Mays, McCovey, Cepeda, Marichal and Perry. And modern players like Buster Posey, Will Clark and Barry Bonds.

    Those are sweet, congrats and thank you for sharing with us.
  • Is that a '52 Box???? Thats so much better to show off than the case that dave and adams card world has.

    What is the other one with no date? The one that says "doubles"?

    Beautiful stuff!!

    My guess would be a 1951 topps red or blue back box, but I have never seen one. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

    1951 Red Back Box, I think.

    Although I don't know the difference between a blue back and red back box.

    Jason ... REAL nice. They should display amazingly well. Although I have the '61 and '62 stamp books, I have never seen a full box. ENJOY!
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Love the boxes. I am trying to put a collection of empty boxes together and those would be the center piece of any collection. Nice job.

    '54 Box. The one that says doubles is '51.
    '52 Topps is kinda an ugly box- it's got copy instead of graphics.

    nice pickups Jason. I spent a lot of time with that collection and the ones you got will display very nicely. Starting or finishing a box run?

    Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

    That '52 box is a beauty! I was the underbidder, I think it went extremely cheap!

    Kind of in the middle of box run... I already have a 1954 and 1956 in slightly better condition so I'm not sure what I'll do with those.

    I'm not so much trying to assemble a box run, but I like to collect items that would be in a 1950's general store. Mostly boxes, advertising pieces and the sort. I couldn't pass up that 1953 Topps box, I would've paid as much for that one as I did the entire lot!

    Thanks for the kind words guys!
