Extremely scarce 1969 Converse Basketball complete shoebox and size 5-1/2 boys sneakers featuring a 9-card "staff" uncut set. The sneakers present very well with only light wear scattered on top of the pair of shoes. The vast majority of these shoeboxes were quickly discarded upon initial purchase and few complete specimens have surfaced over the decades. This assembly includes an intact lid and lower box with crisply attached panels. Despite moderate to heavy fraying and creasing throughout, the subjects still present nicely. Includes: Bob Davies, Joe Dean, Gib Ford, Bob Houbregs, Rod Hundley, Bunny Levitt, Earl Lloyd, John Norlander and Phil Rollins.
