Offered is a extremely, nearly MINT condition, full unopened wax box from Bowman's 1953 issue Stars of Radio & TV. Notice how Radio is listed first? This was the time period where the crossover of radio to television was being made by most of these stars of entertainment. Greats such as Bob Hope, Groucho Marx, Sid Caeser and Dinah Shore were making the transition, and are included within these colorful MINTY packs. Our research has revealed no full box has ever been publicly offered, and certainly one not nearly this nice. The box is COMPLETELY PERFORATED on top, and includes two vintage tape marks, which appear to have been placed by the factory before being shipped. An extremely rare box of unopened cards, authenticated and wrapped by BBCE.
