This afternoon, I was going through some raw packs and discovered that a raw 1976 Topps pack had a tear in the corner. I decided that this pack was one that should be ripped. It was one of the 7-card packs. Here are 3 of the seven cards:

This one has a couple flakes of snow, but is nicely centered and sharp.

The Rice is a little OC, but still nice. The John is really nice.

    Here are the other 4 cards. The father-son card is the wax card. Cabell is the gum card, but has no stain. It is actually nice.

    Sharp cards, John! The Cabell actually looks the best to my eye. John looks very sharp, too!

    John, are you going to the Grote school of pack ripping justification?

    Thanks for sharing the rip. image

    The 101 course is locating and decimating those packs with tears. The next course is going to discuss locating packs with broken gum..
