One of the most difficult Topps hockey sets to complete in high-grade is this 110 card "Tall Boys" set from 1964-65. Due to their larger dimensions the set was prone to extensive corner and edge damage plus the longer borders allowed greater opportunities for tilting and off-centering. An additional obstacle for completion is the 11 single printed cards all within the high number series. Presented here is one of the nicer condition 1964-65 Tall Boys sets we've seen in quite some time. Overall EX condition with most cards ranging between VG-EX to EX-MT with a few better and worse. We sent 5 key cards to PSA for grading. Key cards are #20 Hull(HOF) NM PSA 7 54 !st Series Checklist NM PSA 7(OC) 55 2nd Series Checklist EX-MT PSA 6 58 Williams EM(OC) 59 Pilote(HOF) EM(OC) 68 Plante(HOF) EM/NM(OC) 72 Dornhoefer VG+ 73 Maki VG+ 74 Villemure VG-EX 80 Rousseau EX 89 Howe(HOF) EX+ PSA 5.5 91 Nesterenko EX+/EM 92 Paille EX(OC) 98 Hicke EM 102 Horton(HOF) EX+ 105 Horton AS VG-EX/EX 106 Mikita AS VG 107 Hull AS EX-MT PSA 6.
