1964 topps giants display box
Posted By: <b>Anthony N.</b><p>Thanks for the compliment KG, but I'm hardly an expert- more like a very avid collector.<br />I don't think they are that tough- harder than the regular '64 boxes, but I see a lot more of them than Stand up boxes and the '64 Xmas display boxes. I've seen 2 of each of those in the last 5 years, and still need one of each.<br />I"m basing this on examples in any presentable condition. In high grade I have no idea, and it's probably more dependent on whether or not there were finds.<br />'64 Giant cards themselves are very, very plentiful, but I suspect most of them come from vending. As a kid in the mid '70's they were sold in envelopes of 25 for a buck at Dodger Stadium. I'd guess that the boxes are not as common as the abundance of cards would lead you to believe, but that is purely speculation on my part.<br /> I'm assuming from your post you've got one, I'd love to see a scan of a near mint example.<br /> Here's the one I have, and the 2 pack variations. I"ve yet to see an uncut sheet, anyone else come across one?<br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/griffins/waxboxes/icons/64Giants.jpg"><br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/griffins/packs/icons/64Giantsyellow.tif.jpg"> <img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/griffins/packs/icons/64Giantswhite.tif.jpg">
