What cell in a rack pack would a Ricky Henderson card have to be in order for it to legitimize it being unopened?

The header cell. 1980 racks consist of cards from A and B sheets in the header cell, cards from C and D sheets in the middle cell and cards from E and F sheets in the end cell. Henderson is printed on the B sheet. Most of the bad 1980 racks with Henderson on top have him in the end cell as that one is the easiest cell to tamper with.

Wow. Some really good information to know. Is that how it is with other years? With A and B in the header cell, C and D in the middle and E and F in the end? Thanks, Bob

Any thoughts on the seam at the bottom on this one? It looks bad to me. This is supposed to be unopened with Henderson.
do you have anymore pics on that rack ?
I dont see any issues there. The seams look normal to me for this issue.

It depends on the year. Topps transitioned to letter designations from asterisks for sheets in 1978. 1978 and 1979 follow the same collation as 1980. There are known known anomalies for most years (for example, A/B, C/D, C/D in 1979), but I have not seen one in which cards from A/B sheets are found in any cell aside from the header cell for those years.

He probably doesn't like the lower right crinkle.
Since it's BBC Wrapped, I would think it's ok.

That's quite common with the edges for 1980 racks. I'd be more concerned if it didn't look like that.
