FS: 1956-1968 Seattle Popcorn Collection (78 Different Cards) *Stars, Maury Wills etc
 

I have had these sitting around for a while and always anticipated chasing the run at some point but I just don't see it happening in the near future (too many different other collecting interests at the moment) so I figured I'd put them up as a lot. Very tough to find a group of these this large. Includes some of the keys to the collection including the super-high-demand 1957 Maury Wills card that is on nearly every Seattle Popcorn wantlist, along with Bob Lemon, Rico Petrocelli, Wilbur Wood, and even a card still in the original glassine envelope (as issued). Condition is mixed on the early cards (FR to EXMT/NRMT) with most of the later years being very nice (some of the nicest I have ever seen). Asking price is $2995 on the entire lot shipped to you. Feel free to make offers as well but I am NOT looking to break up the collection at this point (nor do I anticipate doing so in the future). Email me at rhettyeakley@netzero.com if interested.
