Description: Up for auction is ONE, 1989 Topps Heads Up Test unopened pack. This pack has been authenticated personally by Steve Hart from BBCE. It comes in their tamper proof BBCE seal and wrap. In this pack, you have a chance at a possible pull of the rarest rookie of Ken Griffey Jr, the 1989 Topps Heads Up Test. 1989 Topps Heads Up Test is Griffey’s rarest and most expensive rookie card (estimated only 24 total exist). A PSA 4 - 89 Heads Up Test Griffey recently sold for $2000 in August 2023. A raw copy of the Griffey is currently on eBay for a $10k asking price. A PSA 8, 9 or even a 10 could easily go north of $10,000+.From PSA message boards about the 1989 Topps Heads Up Test set: “Legend goes that the release was test marketed to a couple of stores in the Pennsylvania area and that an estimated 24 total boxes were produced that contained 24 single item packs inside, thus making it one of the most elusive and rare items ever produced by Topps.” Highlights of this numbered set include: Tony Gwynn (#1), Ken Griffey, Jr. (#5), Bo Jackson (#8), Ryne Sandberg (#9), Wade Boggs (#11), Mark McGwire (#14), Ozzie Smith (#17), Don Mattingly (#19), Kirby Puckett (#20) and Mike Schmidt (#24).I originally purchased these Unopened 1989 Topps Heads Up Test packs from REA (Robert Edwards Auctions) in their Spring 2023 catalog. I then sent them to Steve at BBCE to get them authenticated and wrapped. These are the first ever Unopened 1989 Topps Heads Up Test Packs to be authenticated and wrapped by BBCE (Steve). The 1989 Topps Heads Up Test set is extremely rare, these packs do not come up for sale often.Bid with confidence, from one collect to another, I will package and ship with care. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.
