    If you mean these ones, no.

    Current eBay Auction

    He has sold some legit rack packs in the past, but seems to have created a new type of 1975 rack pack. I really don't like his description where he says Unopened 1975 Topps "REGULAR" 24 card Rack Pack. Makes it sound legit from Topps which to the best of my knowledge is not the case.

    There's no way those are real.

    That's some awfully fresh looking cellophane.

    I'm not saying I have seen every 75 Topps Rack, But I have never seen a white one. Especially a white one with 24 cards. All the racks I have ever seen from 75 have been red, 42 card versions for 49 cents.
    I think this guy probably made these with a seal-a-meal.

    Seal a meal...Ha! That's the first thing I thought of too.

    They were not produced by Topps.

    Thanks all! That's what I suspected on the 75 BB racks, but then he had legit looking 72 & 73 FB so I wasn't sure.

    Those look like some nice home grown racks to me! The LEAST he could have done was used a yellow header card! If they go cheap enough they may not be a bad buy .... but DON'T pay more for the rack than you would for the raw cards that you can see.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    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.

    The '73 FB rack does look legit to me. The others, no!

    Kind of pricy on the graded 75s.
