With all the wax breaks.....70s?

TZAHL

Who wants to head up a 70s break? 60s?

gemint

I'm in for 50's.

Don't even start with that, or we'll have about 200 trolls suddenly converging on the boards offering to 'take up the collection'.

TZAHL

LOL. Ok......just putting it out there. I'm sure there are people here that would be trusted with the funds and some would not (poor school teachers like me! ).

I know I would not be able to afford a 50s break...pry not even a 60s.

How bout a 90-96 break? Everyone gets a box of each for $35 total! I could afford that!

70S isn't even feasable trust me I priced it out when i was putting the 80's rip together and the cost per person would be crazy. Although I would be crazy enough to get in But I don't know if i'd rip em probably slab em

I think an interesting idea for December would be 31 Days of Christmas Topps... 1976-2006 Topps wax packs (including multiple series in years that had them). Start with 2006 and go back a year each day... the days after Christmas might be be the real presents

About how much are we talking? Just curious as I doubt I could afford it, but it's fun to think about... maybe a '75-'79 Break x2 or something?

cjb1977

I could probably a afford a 90-96 break. Let me know if you get any further on the idea.

ArnyVee

How about a 70s wax break ....box by box. So, start with the '79s and get a box split up by 6 or 9 people or something. Then, go to a '78 on a later date. Maybe that would work?

A 75-85 wax rip would be sweet!

brianwintersfan

77-83 would be affordable and there is a good shot at some nice rookies/hof players. Count me in on something like that.

FavreFan1971

I am guessing this is a Baseball break. If it is football, count me in

XanaduNow

I agree. If we're going to do a late-70s to early-80s break I would much rather do football.

Just do the 8 nights of Chanukah. Would be easier and cuts out crappy years in the 90's. Start about 1975 and go 8 years forward!

FYI:

Football at BBCE 76,78,80,81,82,83,84,85 & 86 = $5490 by 24 = $228.75 each + shipping

Football at BBCE 72,73,74,75,76, & 78 = $11,330 by 24 = $470.08 + shipping


Football card store has rack cases of 79,80,82,83, & 85 for $8,055 + shipping

See now I would only be interested if it was baseball.

How about a 1984 donruss rip and we send in the best cards for grading? It's a kick ass set and the cards are pretty.

There's already a 4-way pack rip that is going to start in a day or two (check the '84 Donruss thread in a couple of days) once the other three folks receive theirs in the mail. But, if you want, we can do another one shortly after that Munchjs.

Chris, why would you divide by 24 and not 36? Were the late 70's football packs not 36 in a box?

Also, why not try something different......pick a year (any year) and do the Baseball, Football, Basketball & Hockey from that same year? Would that be something that folks would be interested in?

ChrisC

Arny - BBCE states 24 packs in there description, I never ripped anything earlier than 85 so I double checked.

ArnyVee

Interesting. I never ripped any late '70s Football either.

So, we could start working our way back and start with 1979 Baseball, Football, Hockey & Basketball. Or, one box at a time for just baseball or just football?
