Here is a shot of my former junk wax setup. Full boxes on display look cool IMO. And I see why others still collect them. But unmarked vending boxes, not so much. As the cards themselves are not very valuable or rare.

Really awesome display. I couldnt agree more, those old topps non-sports boxes are super cool to display. The box art is pretty much the best part, not unlike the cover of a comic book usually being the coolest part (it needed to be...to get those casual shoppers to buy!).

Maybe the contents are worthless, but it was a fun, simple era of nonsports, that didnt involve turquoise /50 parallels, sketches, mega $$$ pmgs, retail blaster flipping, and epack hogging/bots. My oh my have times changed.
