    So pack 1 and 3 were the same exact 8 cards?

    At least one HOFer in every pack, can't beat that! Nice pulls!

    i opened some 78/79/80/81s as well, but the '77s were by far the most fun!

    If nothing else, this shows cards from this era do run in sequences, lol..

    Eric, you must have been excited to see Mr. Brett in there even if he is a little OC.

    Congrats on getting that out of your system so you can come by and not get the urge to rip any of my packs.

    Yes, O-Pee_Chee and 75 minis are just not up my alley so to speak. Just plain old 70's Topps for me. image
