Since Tim (Grote) is hellbent on ripping defenseless packs, I thought it would be nice to share my lastest pickup just will be saved from such a fate. Really excited to add it to the collection.

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.

That is an awesome rack too especially with the two Mets showing including Mr. Jones. I really like how nicely centered the cards on top are too.
What I really like is those nice double seams which Topps discontinued after 1973 due to the decrease in card count in racks from 54 to 42.

That's true--too icy to venture out--I'll just have to wait till the next time the LI chapter meets at Miller's Ale House.

Paul - Love the 72 rack though I didn't notice the two Mets. My eyes focused squarely on that beautiful Dandy Don Gullet.

Mine isn't centered as nicely as Dave's, but it does have a friend of ours on back.

They call me "Pack the Ripper"
<< <i>Munson is right behind Buford! Rip it and sell the PSA 9 for 3 more 71 racks, LOL!! >>
Really? Mine was surrounded by Don Hahn and Bill Melton.

Add a Met on top or bottom, and I'm giddy.

He wasn't depicted as a Met on this card, but became one midway through the 1972 season...
As a side note, check out Billy giving the camera guy the finger..

<< <i>Hope it's good. That GAI holder and all. >>
It's a common misconception that all GAI packs are suspect, but that is not the case. That 71 rack is definitely authentic.

Definitely true. If you look, you can see the double seams on the 1971 rack along with the correct header card with the circle punch and blank back which were used in 1971.

I take this post as a cry for help, and we are all here to help you in any way we can! You grab the scissors, and I'll grab the beer and CS1's!
Congrats on an amazing pick up. I am not a huge fan of sealed items but that is one that cannot be ignored. Considering that they dont pop around too often. I would love to own one in my collection some day.

Thanks guys!!!
I remember meeting your dad at the National Jeremy. Great story. Yeah, I'm still pretty happy about that 1971 cello pack. They are even harder to find than the racks. Hopefully, I'll see you in Cleveland this year.
