Description
About the Set
The 1955 Topps set has a total of 206 cards and contains three iconic rookie cards of legendary Hall of Famers: Roberto Clemente, Sandy Koufax and Harmon Killebrew.
This is our tenth 1955 Topps Complete Set Break and as always features a relatively short checklist loaded with hits. About a third of the cards in this set are graded, it boasts a total of 68 cards slabbed by PSA, SGC, Beckett and CGC including all-graded HOF cards and 22 on-card autographs.
The Roberto Clemente RC is a gorgeous and graded SGC 4.5, the Sandy Koufax RC is an outstanding PSA 5 as is the Hank Aaron card. Condition-wise, raw cards average VG-EX - as always, none are poor.
Card numbers and spot numbers match until Spot #175, since cards numbered 175, 186, 203, and 209 were never issued. That's why card numbers go to 210, while there are only 206 spots.
Review the full checklist with specific conditions of each card.

Participants purchase a spot or multiple, each guaranteeing them one random card from the set. For this break, each spot receives one random card from this curated complete 1955 Topps set, which includes a total of 68 unique graded cards.
After we fill, we will schedule a time to stream live and notify all participants at least 24 hours in advance. The list will be randomized and each spot will be assigned a random card from the set. A spot will hit the Roberto Clemente RC, a spot hit the Koufax RC, etc.
We utilize the Random.org randomizer, starting of by using 2 dice with a 9 roll minimum to determine the number of list shuffles. The randomizer run will be performed by a trusted video runner and streamed live in our Facebook Group and on our YouTube Channel. A video recording and randomizer results are posted immediately after results are completed.
