    Find anything good?

    Well, not much here except memories, stale gum and rough cards. But, saved me from opening the 89’s!

    Good luck! You might like the Righetti pack if I remember correctly...

    Rags to Ripken. Nope! Lol.

    how tight was the cellophane on these packs? Were the corners damaged? It looks like centering on the regular Seaver is gucci -- what about the rest of the card?

    Cellophane was wrapped pretty tight. I haven’t looked carefully yet, but just with the naked eye can tell nothing too special. Some are bent, others dinged corners.

    I have opened 83 groceries and they were not nearly at tightly wrapped.

    Thanks for sharing the results, though of all the forms of unopened product grocery cellos are probably the toughest from which to pull mint cards due the wrapping.

    A topps Ripken is the last great 80s baseball card I need to open from a pack. Some day.
