Offered is a full 1980 Topps uncut production sheet. Contains 132 cards and grades VG with some wrinkling and creasing. Included is the blank-back error sheet, highlighted by the New York Yankees team card with Billy Martin as their manager. Martin was fired by the Yankees before the start of the season and the card was never printed. Martin, having been fired by the Yankees once before, returned in 1979, but was fired again in October for punching out a marshmallow salesman. The blank backed sheet with Martin error is EX-MT. A great part of baseball card history. Extremely rare as there is no more than a few in existence. Stamped “August 1989 Topps Auction NYC” on verso. From the Original NYC 1989 Topps Archives Auction.
