Pack sub finally popped my first GEM cello



My pack sub finally popped: logged 12/11

I received my first Gem Mint 10 Cello image (1978, this makes #6 out of 212).

And my first PSA-7 wax (1978).

Into the closet they will go. I sure wish I could find a good way to display these.

Just wanted to share my results and thanks for looking.

Joe

    Yes,

    All these were from BBCE group rips.

    Thanks, Joe

    Nice! If you are looking to display just 1 or 2 or 3 packs, I could probably redo some of my displays to hold them. I was planning on making a few for myself. Back when I was doing this on a more serious level, there were no PSA-graded packs. They are pretty large, but I think they will fit my current displays with a little cutting. Just PM me. Again, congrats!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Thanks,

    I just started (last year) collecting packs thanks to the unopen pack addicts here and am
    working backwards from 1980 so all of these are for my PC.

    I hope BBCE can find some more 70's stuff because I love submitting.

    This is my 3rd sub (21 packs total) and am hooked. image

    One pack didn't grade so I ripped it but still have the other 20.

    Good luck to all who are waiting on subs and hope they pop soon.

  • The best way to display them is after they have been ripped LOL

    Following up on my earlier post, I went ahead and recut one of my frames. It was good practice for everything else I have to cut for my collection. I use a foam holder to keep the packs in place without adhesives. Unfortunately, I only have two PSA graded packs right now! Could anyone help a brother out with some 1970s baseball packs? Hah. Centering looks to be off about 55/45 left/right, but I can fix that.

    That's the proper way to display packs.
    I'm building a 1968 and a 1970 Topps set. I have lots of 1970s and 1960s to offer in trade.

    Sorry, no football this time. image

    I did not mean to ignore football just didn't have any ready to go.
