Pack Rip Scan Backlogs... (3 - '72 FB Wax, 2 - '74 Packs, and finally a '75 wax has been added...) [

I mentioned these rips a while ago, just know getting around to posting results.

First up will be 3 1972 Football Wax packs. I had originally thought I had one each series but it turned out the one I thought was a series 1 was a series 2 even though it wasn't labeled as such.

I'll also be posting a couple rips from 74 and one from 75 in this thread in the following days.

Here is what the first 72 pack contained... (a few great cards here)

The next 72 pack contained... (not much to see here)

My first series 3 pack!!! Turned out to be a Cowboys fan bonanza.

The last 72 pack contained... (a couple nice cards here, all 10 were cards I didn't have!)

I don't buy anything unopened that I don't plan on ripping.

My latest three packs (2 more 72s and a 58!!!!) I'll admire for a while, but they will get ripped!

Condition seemed real nice (few OC cards).

I'm not a Football guy, the only perosn I heard of was Mercury Morris.

1972 Topps Wax Football didn't have very nice looking packs. White with a Colorless photo and Football, how times have changed.

That checklist may be the coolest looking sports card checklist I've ever seen.

And kudos to George Blanda for place-kicking a football the way God intended it: straight-on.

Next up a '74 FB Cello pack. Three nice cards here but the rest were OC with a few bordering on MC.

Another one from '74 but this time a wax pack. Although it's clearly labeled, I was expecting a "normal" wax pack when I bought this. Despite overpaying for this pack it did yield two beautiful cards!

That 72 High number Blanda is is one of the last cards I need for my Registry set. Don't look as though that one will pull the 8-9 grade I need.

A few nice looking 74's. That Elmo Wright looks great!

What are your intentions with the cards?

The Blanda was part of my Secret Santa gift to goraiders and all the other nice ones shown here and about 40 others were shipped to PSA yesterday. The 72s well go in my set (replacing their raw counterpart), I don't have many 74s and don't have immediate plans on starting that set. I have yet to sell any cards on here or on Ebay although I do have many extra Browns (Graded and Raw) and many extra raw cards from the sets I'm currently building.

Maybe in 2012 I'll have to let a few of those go to another home.

Last up for this thread is a '75 wax pack.

Overall a very nice pack with some great condition cards, including a future Browns HOFer!












Never seen one of these before...

Nice lookin' Stabler in that '75 pack.
