Clean midgrade complete 1968 Topps baseball set. One of the more important sets of the decade due to the inclusion of rookie cards of Nolan Ryan and Johnny Bench. The set is a condition-sensitive one, partially due to the centering issues so common to this era due to Topps' poor quality control. This is a midgrade set, with the technical breakdown being approximately 4% EX-MT, 18% EX, 35% VG-EX, 31% VG, 9% GOOD, 2% FAIR and a few lesser.  A breakdown of the keys would be #20 Robinson (GOOD), #45 Seaver (VG-EX), #50 Mays (VG), #80 Carew (VG-EX), #86 Stargell (VG), #100 Gibson (VG), #110 Aaron (EX), #150 Clemente (VG-EX), #177 Ryan (GOOD), #205 Marichal (EX-MT), #220 Killebrew (VG-EX), #230 Rose (EX-MT), #240 Kaline (EX), #247 Bench (EX), #280 Mantle (VG-EX), #290 McCovey (VG), #355 Banks (POOR), #370 Aaron AS (GOOD), #375 Clemente AS (VG), #408 Carlton (FAIR), #490 Superstars (GOOD), #500 Robinson (VG), #520 Brock (GOOD), #575 Palmer (GOOD).  598 cards total.
