1972 Topps Football Rack with 3 HOF'ers including Emmitt Thomas ROOKIE

I gotta say I am pretty pumped about this rack!! It was a Star Rack that Fritsch had on their website and I bought it as soon as their 25% Off Weekend Sale went into effect.

A majestic 45+ year old rarity that in my opinion is a work of art in collecting. The 72 Football set to me is so underrated and yet one of the most beautiful and colorful sets in all of collecting.

I truly hope that PSA some day grades and encapsulates Racks so that this rack and many others out there can be best preserved and protected for years to come. In the meantime, I will keep it safe.

Good collecting to everyone out there!!

    That's a beauty, Chris! Awesome piece! Glad you got it and they honored the discount, too. I'm waiting for a few packs myself. That was a great sale.

    @UFFDAH that’s Beast mode!! I love how you collect across the spectrum (new, old, unopened) and you share as often as you do. Thank -you

    BBCE can wrap that very nicely in a holder I believe.

    Geez, that thing looks as if it were just pulled off the grocery rack... Makes me wonder what Fritsch had in his warehouse 30 years ago.
