Multi-sport set featuring all time greats and active (at the time) athletes from Baseball, Football, Basletball, Hockey, Soccer, Boxing , Track & Field, and Swimming. Full packages originally held 5 pieces of gum, each piece was wrapped in a Sports Facts wrapper. As you might expect, these were not commonly saved, so finding a complete set today is very difficult. All of these are free from rips and tears, but they could not avoid wrinkling and gum stains. Key wrappers include:
#5 Babe Ruth HOF
#12 Mickey Mantle HOF
#16-18 Wilt Chamberlain HOF
#21 Hank Aaron HOF
#33 Johnny Unitas HOF
#35 Jesse Owens
#38, #42 Jim Brown HOF
#52 Bobby Orr HOF
#53 Giorgi Chinaglia HOF
#54 Muhammad Ali GOAT
