1977 Topps Blue SW cards

Post by Captainsolo1978 »

Was at the Petone Fair today in Lower Hutt and there was a stall holder with random SW stuff.

Saw a bundle of Blue 1977 Topps SW cards.

I asked the stall holder how much and he said 10 bucks.

Got them home to find its a full set. Result!

A complete set? Excellent score! I totally loved collecting those blue-bordered cards up when I was a kid.

Did it include the NZ-numbered 67-72 versions?

Nice one! Those out-of-the-blue finds have got to be one of the best parts of collecting.

They are numbered 1 to 71!

So I may be missing the last one. I thought it was strange because they must have been in place of the US stickers.
