Also important to note that there are several different sequences leading to a particular card and that sequencing will typically break several times within a 1970s rack or cello pack.

I'm actually happy to know that Tim. Thanks for the information. I did find an interesting thread on this board from 2009 regarding this when I was looking it up.
Whenever I see a cello with no stars showing get bid up on ebay, I take note since that usually means the people with sequencing knowledge know something good might be inside.

NP, Steven~in my experience, sequencing is not widely known among those selling (or even bidding) on ebay. And though your chances obviously improve to pull a certain card if you have opened enough packs to realize the sequence involved, it is not guaranteed by any means. If it ran that true, every rack pack would have same card on front & back. For 1970s baseball, at least, there are various sequences that lead to certain cards, and sequencing can often switch after as few as a couple of cards.

Do you know which cards lead to the 1952 Mantle? I have to decide which '52 cello pack I should buy.
They call me "Pack the Ripper"
