Complete original wax box of 1970 Topps "Man on the Moon" non-sport cards including 24 packs of ten cards each. This display box features a colorful illustration of two astronauts exploring the surface of the moon with Earth visible in the background, with the set title boldly printed in yellow. A sticker on the top panel, which reads "Real Photos Of Men On The Moon!," indicates this box is from the second issue of this popular set, in 1970, after a successful moon landing was completed. The set features the original fifty-five cards from the 1969 issue as well as an additional forty-four new cards. While it is impossible to provide guarantees with reference to grading of unopened material, there is, of course, the very real possibility that within this box are Mint or Gem Mint examples. The wax packs are all in NR/MT-MT condition. The store display box is bright and bold with minor shelf wear visible against the black background. This is an outstanding complete unopened wax box from this very popular non-sport issue.
