Offered is a one of a kind unopened treasure, a 1967 Philadelphia football unopened box of cello packs. The box is complete as issued with (36) 10-cent cello packs. It’s amazing that this still exists! We had eight of the packs graded for our consignor: GAI 9 Mint (3) (one has a Chicago Bears team card on bottom). GAI 8.5 NM-MT+ (2) (one has a Checklist on top and the other has a Green Bay Packers team card on top). GAI 8 NM-MT (1). GAI 7.5 NRMT+ (1) (it has Ray Nitschke on bottom). GAI 7 NRMT (1) (it has Checklist #2 on bottom). The other packs average a strong and consistent NRMT to NM-MT. If you are working on a 1967 Philadelphia high-grade set and must open these beauties then look for HOFers Unitas, Ditka, Sayers, Starr, Tarkenton, Hornung, Jurgensen, and rookies of Dan Reeves and Leroy Kelly. Display box is perforated on top otherwise it is a strong NRMT. 1960’s football complete unopened boxes are virtually non-existent.
