    Oh no I just saw it on eBay. I couldn't afford it. The auction shows they want $18,000.00 for it. Wish I could afford that image

    Great pack for some, but not for me.

    I never want to own a pack where the main card is affixed to the gum.

    I always want the main card showing through the back......AND....the cards face must be showing through the back.
    I have found that wax stains can be easily removed from the front of a card due to it's glossy finish, but wax on the back of a card can be tougher to remove.

    Also because I want the main cards front to be showing through the back of the pack for aesthetic purposes also.

    Two examples...............

    Thankfully the gum does not stick to the cards on this release. Also, Stickers are featured on the back of every pack.

    Well, for you guys who are familiar with the sequencing of the cards in these packs, does this pack, PSA or not, pass the smell test?

    isn't the Jordan on the back the Sticker? Thought all the packs have the sticker on the back. I remember having to remove the wax gunk from the back of those stickers when I opened those up as a kid.

    The Jordan sticker is on the back, according to the seller.

    How can one tell that there is a Jordan on the front or back. I'm looking at the scans and cannot make out what cards they are.
    I'm building a 1968 and a 1970 Topps set. I have lots of 1970s and 1960s to offer in trade.

    If PSA and their graded packs division have erroneously authenticated and encapsulated a countless number of vintage 'on top star-showing cello packs' in PSA certified holders that have been unequivocally proven to be fraudulent and homemade, how can one ever be sure?

    Yes, Muggyman lives.

    The collation of the cards and the sticker are independent of one another. Mathematically, the odds of a pack like this (or any other pack) is 1 in 1,452. (Is this right? 132 different cards and 11 different stickers)

    The wrapper is translucent in the red and white areas of the wrapper. You can make out the ball above Jordan's head, going in for the dunk. On the back, the sticker is face down, so you can make out the text on the back to easily determine who the player is.
