    Centering is a treat on 78Ts Mike - still very nice cards.

    I've got a stack of Staubachs - most average centering and every Bradshaw I have has a black print dot on the upper left corner if memory serves?

    Good luck on the next pack!

    Pack 6 - Larry Csonka card is showing. Keep it or rip it? Any hard core Csonka fans out there that would value this?

    rip it! i don't see him adding much value!
  • Scottiec2288Scottiec2288 Posts: 911 ✭✭✭
    Rip it!!!
  • vintagefunvintagefun Posts: 1,974 ✭✭✭
    I think there are only 5 guys I'd value on the F/B of a 78...

    Dorsett
    Stallworth
    Payton
    Staubach
    And maybe Bradshaw, Joe Green or Largent

    So I'm in the Rip Camp.

    And if you do, I'll go rip a 78 right now and post here too.

    ETA: and if you rip, pick a number between 1-18 and I'll rip the corresponding pack in my stash.

    Rip it! somewhere CPAMike is cringing, even if it is football image

    A ton of star power in this one, of course the stars have the worst centering!

    That was fun, and I pick #4 for vintagefun!!!!

    Nice Mike. I pulled that same Staubach in one of the last few packs I ripped. Along with Sherk and Bills.

    As soon as this chicken comes off the grill, #4 will be on the way.

    I happened to noticed you got quite the Browns haul. Did you sequence those packs?!? image

    Thanks for not tossing out the Jets.

    Got a Franco...but it appears to have 2 small surface wrinkles.

    It'll fit nice in my raw set at least.

    How many Jets in the set? 7 packs ripped and only 1 found. Weird.
