Loads of amazing pictures after my recap.
I found myself at Baseball Card Exchange on Monday to film a spot for the TV show "A Piece of the Game".
First I would like to thank Steve & Peter for setting it up. They are great guys and I had a blast doing it. By the way
the shop is just CRAZY! I about fell out when I went in the backroom and saw all that product. Words can not properly
describe the sheer volume. I don't know how they ever get anything done.
I brought in a 48 ct. 1967 Topps baseball cello box (for a friend) for the show. Along with about 20 packs that Steve
& PSA had already graded. Steve checked out the unopened box and gave it his seal of approval. We filmed the spot and
then afterwards he wrapped/sealed it up for safekeeping!
I would also like to thank Don and the guys from "A Piece of the Game" for making the whole thing so much fun and
stress free. I brought my daughter, who is home from college on Thanksgiving break with me, and she had a blast. I
think I may have even risen a few spots on the "COOL" meter in her eyes!
Steve is just a super nice guy. He took the time, on what I can only imagine was a hectic day, to talk with me about
some other items I had brought along. He looked everything over for me and I was able to get it all authenticated and
wrapped. Thanks again.
If you are thinking about a visit or giving Steve some business I strongly recommend it!
Now for some pictures!
And 1 of my measly boxes (in comparison) with a few biggies showing!
And a nice addition to the Redskins collection! HTTR!

Thanks.

Just depends on how long it takes them to edit all my screw ups out!

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
Also, Eric is very misguided. I usually leave some 1985 Topps packs lying around to distract him from the good stuff.
But I have promises to keep,

Collecting:
Any unopened Baseball cello and rack packs and boxes from the 1970's and early 1980s.
Tim - I was amazed at how clean these packs were when I first saw them. The only drawback, if you want to call it that,
is that you can't make out who this poster insert is!
cubfan89 - David Kaplan wasn't at the filming. My piece was handled by Don DuPree. The Creator & Executive Producer
of the show. Very nice guy. But I did get to meet Steve Hart!
Meatloaf & pdub1819 - Believe it or not in this pack hoard there were 6 Clemente's! 2 9's, 2 7's, 1 backwards on top 8
and 1 in the 48 unopened count box. Just about all of the HOF/Star packs are pop 1's.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Just Fantastic Items ...... I was just curious, how many cards traditinally would come in the 67 cello's that included the poster?
I was given the answer from George L. / Heritage Collector that the answer is 12 cards per cello. Thanks G!
Thanks for your post on these, as it was a treat to see them!
he said depending on the series, they have 11 or 12 cards in a pack. When you consider each
series has 86 cards, that's about 1 in 7 odds of pulling the keys. pretty great odds if you plan on
opening!
