FS - Wax Box of 1976 Topps Football

[kevinlenane]

Some quick context, i started back into collecting after selling a company that I started which opened up some time for me- ive since been reasonably active here on Net54. Since then I've also been egregiously posting my latest pickups on Facebook. A friend of mine who is the founder of another company who I used to share office space with reached out to me after seeing my posts and asked me if I wanted to buy his case of 1976 Topps Football. I corrected him and said "you mean box" and he said "no I mean case." Apparently when he sold his company he bought a house and found the case in the attic. He opened two boxes (about half the packs in the second box) It's a case of wax boxes meaning there are ab 14.5 boxes left (the .5 being loose packs. He also pulled 2 Paytons out of that 1.5. Im considering putting one or two up at one of the major auction houses but I wanted to test the appetite here. Noting that the posted BBCE buy price is 5k id assume i could get somewhat more than that at retail if i sold one on the open market. Anyway, let me know if you're interested - we'll have pics of the opened case with the boxes inside to show some provenance as well as pics of the opened cards along w the Paytons (also for sale) by next week. Anyway, let me know if anyone is interested - i haven't seen a single on for sale on Ebay in the past or currently. A few wax boxes hit some auction houses a few years ago but thats about it. Not sure why they are so scarce but im hoping that piques some interest. Thanks!

BTW Leon i know this is technically for baseball but there didnt seem like another very active BST section that this post made sense in. Feel free to reroute me if you think it makes sense. Thanks! BTW - im the tall guy who asked you about the Ted Williams Goudey Premiums at the National
