This lot offers an authentic unopened wax pack of 1980 Topps basketball cards featuring the iconic Larry Bird/Julius Erving/Magic Johnson card showing on the rear! A very scarce occurrence when the most sought-after card in the set can actually be seen through the wax pack. Encapsulated by GAI and given a NM-MT 8 grade, there are little to no superior examples on the market. The vibrant wax pack includes 24 basketball cards, a team pin-up, and of course a stick of bubble gum. An incredible item that was lucky enough to be packed in the right order, showing the most valuable card through the back of the wax pack.
