56 wrapper Multi-sport set featuring all time greats and active (at the time) athletes from Baseball, Football, Basketball, 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. This is missing Giorgio Chinaglia and four commons. 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
#54 Muhammad Ali GOAT
