1951 Topps Ringside Boxing has a total of 96 cards. These are split evenly between two 48-card series. As with a lot of sets from the era, the second series can be a little tougher to find. The cards are smaller than today's traditional cards, measuring 2 1/16" by 2 15/16". This puts them in line with similarly sized sets like 1952 Topps Look 'N See and 1954 Topps Scoops. The set features many of the game's greats--both contemporary and some older stars as well.
This five cent 1951 Topps Ringside wrapper is in VGEX condition and a very tough wrapper. This is the best-conditioned wrapper from this set we have seen as the wrapper appeared to have used glue to the lower right of the bulls-eye graphic on the top border and when pulled apart to open the pack, it often tore the bottom part of the wrapper. This wrapper likely held (3) two-card panels of Topps Ringside. Great wrapper that is extremely tough in decent condition.
