    This is one of my favorites. I got it from Tim and very thankful he offered it to me.

    Part of the rack collection better pieces. Schmidt is on the back of the Dawson 77 rack. Another 75 mini rack sighting. No stars showing but they are in there

    Love the mini racks. They are as tough to find as any rack from the 1970s. The PSA 9 Yount RC that is in my mini set (along with the Aaron #1 card) was pulled by me from a mini rack several years ago.

    Awesome stuff guys. I only have one mini rack to share and man they are hard to find. Has anyone (not named Tim :) ) seen one sell in the last 2-3 years, and what is the going rate on them if found?

    Nice! Those are both in real good shape. Mine is a little brittle. Cards do move around quite a bit

    Thanks, Dan~That is customary for mini racks as Topps used same packaging for mini racks as they did for regular-sized 75 racks.

    KC, that is a beauty. :)

    Here's another one of my favorites, a 72 series 1/2 rack with Say Hey kid on back and Martin saluting the photographer on top.

    Grote that 72 is mind blowing. Can smell the patchouli in the back of the van like when these came out it looks so fresh. Martin was just one of a kind. Love that card

    Here are a couple (previously unseen) drool worthy pictures from a friend's collection that I thought I'd share:

    Nice rack packs, Doug! Back in 1976, I would hit up the local candy store and they had rack packs actually hanging on the peg racks. I would look through all the packs searching for the Aarons, Seavers, etc. Those were the packs I bought and immediately opened.
