BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! This assortment features a large, organized collection of sports and non-sports trading cards housed in a multi-row cardboard storage box with handwritten index card dividers. The bulk of the collection consists of modern 2016 baseball card issues, supplemented by a selection of raw, mid-century vintage baseball and non-sports cards.

Identified sets include Topps (2016 Topps, 2016 Topps Update, and 2016 Topps Heritage Minor League), Bowman (2016 Bowman, Bowman Chrome, Bowman Draft, and Bowman Platinum), and Panini (2016 Panini Optic, including Pink parallels, and 2016 Diamond Kings). Visually identified modern highlights include a stack of 2016 Panini Diamond Kings cards featuring a Frankie Montas Rookie Card.
The vintage sports selection consists of raw, ungraded baseball cards from the 1950s through the 1970s, several of which are presented in semi-rigid protective holders.

The Coronation Scot, and H.M.S. Southampton.
