Topps 1968 game cards

[ALR-bishop]

Anyone else collect them ? You could get them via pack inserts or a boxed set, which is tougher to come by today, particularly sealed. I have a boxed set and a set of inserts. Came across a few oddities in putting it together

I remember getting those in packs, but I don't remember the boxed set. At 15 cents for the box that would have been the best way to pick those up!

I have a set I put together years ago. I haven't seen many boxed sets.

Those offsets are neat.

Oh yes i remember, the box is very rare Al but i'm sure you know it very well! game cards fairly common do to close-out release
they were patterned from 1951 red/blue backs, that box set was extremely limited back in 1968 i did see them once
at a newbberrys dep store i used to go to here in the west coast, but only that once, the cards were introduced in 3rd series wax and cello packs like the ones in the piccs which is important to know! because there is a number of series
1 & 2 packs, around with the game card which means there are either home made or fake!

Never seen the box before. Pretty cool. I have one or two Mantles, but nothing else. I feel like this is a very under appreciated set.

I have a graded set, I like the cards and player variety

I need a Mantle in nice shape to complete my set, if anyone has one to trade.

I know I am late to the game here but I do like the 1968 Topps Game inserts. And, I have NEVER seen the box. I did not know it even was distributed that way, just thought in packs only.
