It's that time a year again to break out my stash and pick out 12 days worth of ripping material. This year I am returning to my tradition of ripping a '58 FB Cello! However, since I have more than one to choose from I'm going to let you guys pick the one I'll open on Christmas Day.
While I'm choosing the packs for the rest of the 11 days, here is a list of the four that I have and who is on top/bottom...
1 - PSA 7 - Jon Arnett/49ers Team
2 - PSA 7 - Walt Yowarsky/Bears Team (Winner)
3 - PAS 6 - Ray Mathews/Gino Marchetti
4 - PSA 5 - Chet Hanulak/ R.C. Owens
The pack with the most votes by Sunday evening will get added to the 12 day!
I'll post the full schedule (with pics) of what is going to get ripped Monday evening.
The official kick-off of the carnage will start a week later on the 14th.
As of now, I know this year will equal or most likely beat last years in the worth total and will include at least a wax run from '75 to '90!
Here they all are....
Dec 14th: 2 - '87 Wax (RC - Kelly), '88 Wax, '89 Wax, '90 Wax
Dec 15th: '82 Wax, 3 - '83 Wax, 3 - '85 Wax (RC - Moon, 2 - Marino)
Dec 16th: 2 - '86 Wax (Elway, RC - Smith)
Dec 17th: 5 - '84 Wax (2 - RC Elway, 2 RC Green)
Dec 18th: 4 - '80 Wax, 2 - '81 Wax
Dec 19th: 1 - '79 Wax Tray (RC Newsome)
Dec 20th: '77 Wax (Randy White), 2 - '78 Wax (Simpson)
Dec 21st: '76 Wax
Dec 22nd: '75 Wax
Dec 23rd: '70 Wax (Bell, Taylor)
Dec 24th: '69 Wax
Dec 25th: '58 Cello (Joe Perry)

Looking forward to the start.
Good Luck!

oh for paragraphs, once you edit you have to hit the "hr" button on the edit page to get paragraphs now. But now you get the lines like you see in mine.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
Just use the "Quick Reply" box at bottom of page and hit enter to form a new paragraph.
For new posts that's fine, but what if you want to edit a existing post or just the thread title!
Sounds like fun. Is there one that would lean toward more star material according to sequencing? If not then you can have my vote. You're judgement worth more than mine. Im just happy to watch. (oh, maybe vote for the one with the best corners) of the top 1-3.

There is some potential HOF star power in these packs...

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.
good luck
collecting RAW Topps baseball cards 1952 Highs to 1972. looking for collector grade (somewhere between psa 4-7 condition). let me know what you have, I'll take it, I want to finish sets, I must have something you can use for trade.
looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started
I'll go with #4. RIP the lowest grade and keep the higher grades slabbed.
This.
I should also state how envious I am.
Looking forward to the results either way!

I haven't noticed any issues when using the "edit" button. I can edit title or paragraphs the way I normally do.
ETA: I would choose the cello with best centered card on top..good luck!

Pack #2 is the winner...
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

Day 1 is is usually pretty uneventful, and this year is no exception! A couple of stars were seen including a rookie Kelly although it's slightly off center.
All these packs came from Wax boxes I busted earlier this year looking for submit-able Browns cards. Still need a few '87 and '89s.
Here are the best for these 5 packs...
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

No star power, lower left corner dings of most cards. Only 3 decently centered cards...
A little bit of star power nothing great. A hand full of centered cards including one of the wax on the back...
Lots of star power in these including a Moon and 2 - 2nd year Marinos! However, the Moon was off center, one nicely centered Marino had gum damage and the other was extremely off center.
Lots of nicely centered commons but most had corner issues. The McNeil and Dickey are the best of the bunch corner wise.
A couple stars here, a decent Elway but a Bruce Smith with mechanical damage. Only a few nice commons.
One pack had stuck gum and both packs had the 1000 yard club card stuck to the adjacent card (See Otis for the worst one!).

1985 Topps Football (starting in psa 8) - #9 - started 05/21/06
No stars, 1 really nice card, a few decent ones and the rest off center.
1 star, lots of off center cards...
1 decent card, 1 missing card and the usual suspects...
Some major star power in this one, Elway has made an appearance! Also a RC Darrell Green. Both have centering issues though.
Deja vu, Elway strikes again! Along with Green and a few others in that sequence. It's obvious all these pack came form the same box.
This pack also had a missing card.
Here is a better scan of the big hits...
