Running deep with a checklist that features a total of 528-cards in all, the 1978 Topps Football release is sure to score a touchdown with collectors, well known for being headlined by the rookie card of running back, Tony Dorsett, who helped lead the Dallas Cowboys to a Super Bowl title in 1977 before his image even showed up on a card. Also including the notable rookie offerings of players such as John Stallworth, Joe Klecko, Tom Jackson, Randy Cross, Wesley Walker, Stanley Morgan and Reggie Williams, offered here is this lot that includes not one (1) but two (2) complete 1978 Topps Football sets. For the first (1st) set, found to be in the condition ranges of EX to EX-MT and EX-MT to NM for its effort while sporting some off-center cards throughout, the notables include; 65-Bradshaw (EX-MT to NM - off-center), 100-Tarkenton (EX-MT to NM), 120-Greise (EX-MT to NM - slightly off-center), 200-Payton (EX-MT to NM - slightly off-center), 290-Staubach (VG-EX to EX - right border ding), 295-Greene (EX-MT to NM - slightly off-center), 315-Dorsett RC (EX-MT to NM), 320-Stallworth (EX-MT to NM - off-center), 400-Simpson (G to VG - hairline crease at top border), 443-Largent (EX-MT to NM) and 500-Harris (EX-MT to NM). For the second (2nd) set, the same list of key cards see's; 65-Bradshaw (EX-MT to NM - off-center), 100-Tarkenton (EX to EX-MT - slight bend to top left corner), 120-Greise (EX to EX-MT - off-center and tiny ding to top left border), 200-Payton (EX to EX-MT - pair of tiny corner dings), 290-Staubach (EX-MT to NM), 295-Greene (EX to EX-MT - tiny ding at bottom right), 315-Dorsett RC (EX-MT to NM), 320-Stallworth (EX-MT to NM), 400-Simpson (EX - small dent top right border), 443-Largent (EX - small stain at top right) and 500-Harris (EX to EX-MT - small corner ding) while the rest of the set is found to be in the overall ranges of EX to EX-MT and EX-MT to NM for its effort while it is worth noting the cards making up the second (2nd) set do have a slight humidity curve to them.
Additionally, also included with the two (2) 1978 Topps sets is a factory sealed set of Topps' 1989 Football release as well as a complete set of 1989 Score Football that includes key rookies of 18-Irvin (EX-MT to NM), 246-D.
