Anyone collect 1975 Topps Football?

I'm thinking of starting this set and wondered if anyone is collecting the set and would like to share advice, tips , etc. I looked for old threads and didn't see any from the past year.

Also, if anyone can post the top 5 cards and prices in PSA 9, I would appreciate it. I assume the Swann and Fouts are the top 2, but I'm not sure about the typical values or what the next most valuable cards would be.

If anyone wants to discuss the set, please post.

    About a year ago I bought a rack box and busted some, selling th erest off to cover my costs. It was fun but the graded cards didn't do nearly as well on ebay as I thought they would. The Cowboys command a huge premium in PSA 9-10, but everything else is reasonable. Most of the commons in PSA 9 go for $5-$10 but not enough of them show up to put a set together in a reasonable time frame. You might want to consider busting a few nice looking racks ($100-$140 a piece) and get a running start.

    Thanks pricing info guys.


    How many cards are in a rack? Did you get many 9's (or 10's) from busting a rack?

    I saw a cello pack at BBCE for $75. How many cards are in that? Is that a good source for high grade cards also?
