73 Topps Football Wax Box question

I'm looking for a good Christmas rip and I see Steve has a nice '73 Football box. How many cards are in each pack? Thanks.

    IIRC 10 cards per pack but FYI, there is also 15 cent packs for this year too, can't remember how many cards but I think probably 15, John

    Dont do it. Thats a year not worth ripping in my book. Packs are tough to find. Im thinking of buying one to put away but havent done it. Ive opened about 5 packs from that year and corners were great but centering was just so damn crazy for that issue. 1972 FB is worth the extra buck with R.Staubach Rc. I pulled 3 out of 1 box once. Many gradeable cards too. Also I think there are 10 cards in the 1973 pack and 1 is a team checklist on the gum card normally.

    do you know if the box at BBCE is 10 cent packs or 15? I guess I could just ask Steve, lol.

    well considering the tab says 10 C I'm going to guess 10 cent packs image

    were the 10 cent packs the 1973 topps cards in the 1972 Topps wrappers? i know they had them in the 1972s and also the orange red 1973 wrappers. Is that the difference as well for the price?

    Not sure if the 15 cent 15 card packs had the 72 wrapper, will let you know if I find out. Here is an auction for the box, John
