General Question about Unopened Material

proofer2

Hi, I was wondering if there is anyone (or some information source) that's accessible and can answer questions such how many cards were in a 1962 topps wax pack, how many wax packs in a 1964 Topps wax or cello box? Any help would really be appreciated.

From an old Mark Murphy Unopened Wax Guide:

1962 Topps baseball wax packs contained 5 cards per pack.

From 1952 - 1973 Topps wax boxes contained 24 packs per box.

On cello packs, it states (almost) all cellos during 1957 - 1969 come 12 cards per pack.

Cello boxes from the 1950's through 1966 contained 36 packs.

Thank you very much. Any idea how I can get a copy of that old guide?
