1975 Topps Baseball Wax Pack Rip

Nikklos

Hey all:

Went to the recent White Plains show and bought a 1975 pack to open. I think I am hooked once again on opening packs. I was surprised by how few unopened vintage packs were at the show but, then again, UI guess it is more suprising that so many remain unopened to this day.

Thought I would share the results:




Gum came off easy. Nyloin really worked to remove the residue. A buddy actually swallowed the gum - which was sickening. He said it didn't taste like anything!


I love checklists but this one is way off-center.


Pretty nice card






Definitely not a nice card


There you go! The reason this is so much fun. But there is some sort of print dot problem in the team name.


Thank god I pulled the Seaver before pulling this POS.




Pretty nice card.


Like I said, I am hooked. It is both a gamble and an investment but more fun than the stock market.

I almost bought that pack, but the seal was starting to come open a bit and I wanted it for my pack collection, not to rip. It was a great deal at $50 and was clearly legit.

Barf will def want that ugly diamond cut miscut!

I was also just thinking that the Jerry Moses would be great for the guy who collects all the miscuts.

The Seaver was the best centered card in the whole pack. Very nice rip!

Grats on the Seaver! Thanks for sharing! Solid 9?

Is the Seaver's bottom left corner sharp? From the scan, it appears a little soft.

I think it looks like that because the Seaver is on top of other cards. I will post a better scan this weekend along with scans of a rip of a 1970 pack also bought at the 1970 show.
