Not to be outdone by its 1952 baseball counterpart, kindly make way in our inaugural sale of unopened awesomeness for one of Topps rarest regular issues in nearly pristine unopened form. This astounding 1957/58 Topps Basketball Unopened 5 Cent Wax Pack has been expertly graded as a PSA 7. Only 9 of these packs have ever been authenticated by PSA in any grade, with only 2 grading higher than this beautiful example. Decades ago, roughly a dozen of these packs were found. That represents the only significant find of these packs in over 60 years and likely the entire population of PSA authenticated wax packs. Even wrappers are non existent, speaking to the extremely limited production of Topps first and last foray into basketball until 1969. The rookie class offered in this set are unparalleled and although the contents are of course unknown, there is a real possibility of serious star power inside, including Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, and so many more legends of the hardwood. Arrangements will be made for this item to be hand delivered to the winning bidder as long as it is within the United States There will be no fee for delivery.
