ADDENDUM: The write-up has been corrected. There are 54 unique autographed cards not 55. There are 2 #62 Mack Calvin signed cards not 1.

In 1976-77 Topps came with a “go big or go home” approach to their basketball card series. At 3 1/8” x 5 ¼” these cardboard behemoths represent the largest flagship sports card set ever made. With a deep Hall of Fame roster and just 144 cards to collect it’s also one of the most collectible of the 1970s basketball sets.  Presented here is a collection of (81) autographed cards from the 1976-77 Topps basketball issue. There are 24 duplicates and one triplicate (#134 James Silas All-Star) so there are 54 unique autographed cards from the set of 144. Cards are primarily EX-MT with bold felt tip pen signatures.
