Nice collection of strip cards, mostly baseball with 26 boxing examples, with dozens of Hall of Famers, including three each of Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb. There are also NINE various sized strip card "sheets" of two, three and up to five card strips.

Grades are listed for the biggest names, and are included as a gauge of the entire group, and is based upon the actual cards characteristics. This is no way indicates every card with a grade will actually "grade" with PSA or SGC, as strip cards are judged much differently. Many strip cards are merely authenticated by the two largest third-party grading companies and Lelands makes no guarantee any of these cards would receive anything more than an AUTHENTIC designation.
