1986 Topps Information/Images Needed

[deweyinthehall]

Hello Again -

For 1986 Topps:

1) I have only found 3 wrapper variations - one offering sets 1 and 2 of the glossies with a sheet ad, one offering sets 3 and 4 with a sheet ad, and one offering sets 5 and 6 without a sheet ad. Do we know of any others?

2) Need images of printing sheets A, B, D and E

3) Any images of or information on grocery pack boxes/display trays and cases.

4) Jumbo 50-card cello cases - images or at least how many boxes per case?

5) Good image of a factory set in the white cardboard box

6) Any known differences in distribution/availability of the white-box factory set, the plain brown box set and the fully illustrated box set

7) Tiffany Traded set case - image or how many sets?

8) Any information or images of the sheets advertised on the wrappers - were they of Topps own brand?

9) Any winners of the 1987 Spring Training Trip who can provide information on that experience and how it was working with Topps.

Thanks!

In order they are A*, B*, D*, E*. These are like the 63's, who knows which sides are the tops.

Just to make sure you know, there are four different variations on how 1986 wax boxes were sold. One is the regular wax box with no seal or external wrapping. One is with a plain yellow sticker across the front opening to the box. One is the same yellow sticker, but with "SWC #2365 printed on it in red print. One is the box wrapped in cellophane (NOT shrink wrapped) with the cellophane folded and sealed at the smaller ends. The wax cases that housed these boxes had different designations on them. The neat aspect of this is that there were three varieties of wax boxes that were essentially factory sealed.

This is a picture of the Price Club case (note the "PC" over the year designation). All of the boxes are cello wrapped so they could be sold by the box and not individual packs.
