Do you know what the pack sold for?

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
Steve
It's just the angle that the pictures were taken.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna somehow try to get some sleep while dreaming about ripping open a 54-year-old pack!

I'm not there. Like many, wish I was.
This wasn't at a National, but an annual show in Chicago.
Wonder how many of these types of rips there are left to be done?
The hobby needs a warehouse find pronto.
Kiss me twice.....let's party.

There is an excuse to get out of everything.
Jake: No I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I, I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts. IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD.
[Elwood covers his head in anticipation of more gunfire, Jake removes his sunglasses to make a wordless appeal, and the Mystery Woman visibly softens]
Thanks for keeping us home bodies updated with pics!

If anyone runs across any 1977 OPC (baseball) unopened packs or boxes, take down the sellers info and PM me. I'll be forever in your debt and will pay a finder's fee upon purchase.
I am at my Hotel in Cleveland, I just got my PSA 7 1953 Satchel Paige in the mail before I left. I pick up a 52 Bowman Mantle PSA 4 tomorrow. I leave for France on Sat. Lifes good.
Or Regional Canadian Baseball Issues?

<< <i>I've learned one thing at the Nationals: If you start feeling arrogant (guess I can't use the work coc*y) about your own collection and how awesome it is, just come here and you'll quickly become humbled. Some of my best pieces would hardly qualify to make the cut for some of these display cases. >>
That is definitely true for me.
My collection is humbly smaller and of less grade quality.
But IMO, it's not the value of the item but how the collector "values" it that gets me excited.
On occasion, I've seen people come and - perhaps - try to be the 'big fish' in the little pond but soon run out of [hot] air and move on.

edit: Spence's card are sweet - thanx for taking the time to share.

I often times get jealous of all the great cards on this board and wish I had a better collection. Then I think to myself how much joy collecting has brought me over the last 35+ year that I get over it quite quickly. Just having some great cards of great players and enjoying the history and memories is enough for me. Though, a PSA anything Mantle, let alone a 10, just blows me away! Tony
All of those Mantles at the Memory Lane booth were impressive; just as impressive as the two T206 Wagners that were sitting right next to them in the display booth! The eye candy they had handing out literature at their booth was nice to look at too.
I talked a little bit with Graig Kreindler - the artist from this thread - and I have to say that his artwork is even more beautiful in person that any internet image can convey. He was working on a portrait of a young Ted Williams during the course of the show today.
Can't wait to schedule some time off for next years' National!
Collecting: Topps 1952-79, Bowman 1952-55, OPC 1965-71, and Pre-War White Sox cards
Ripken, Brooks & Frank Robinson, Old Orioles, Sweet Spot Autos, older Redskins - Riggins, Sonny, Baugh etc and anything that catches my eye.
