1969 Win-A-Card Board Game with Unopened Topps
<B>1969 "Win-A-Card" Board Game with Unopened Topps Cards.</B></I> A mystery was recently solved when it was discovered that the rare yellow-back variation of 1968 Topps Baseball cards actually derive from this scarce Milton Bradley board game. Each game was packaged with the odd assortment of seventy-six 1968 Topps Baseball, thirty-three 1967 Topps Football, and twenty-two 1965 Topps Hot Rod cards. Here we present an incredibly rare find, a complete "Win-A-Card" game with the card package still sealed. Age has caused some of the rubber bands that secured the cards to snap, as should be visible in the photos, but this has allowed us to spot a Hank Aaron card in the mix. And as it is established that this game offers only first and second series Baseball cards, the Nolan Ryan rookie is a possibility. The football offerings might include a rookie Joe Namath as well. A bit of edge damage on the top cards is evident from the use of rubber bands, but most appear to be in fine shape. The game itself has some separation at one corner of the box top, but is otherwise very strong as well. Who knows what treasures may lurk inside?<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Larg (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
