    To finish, a 1958 cello pack!

    You guys voted this pack among the 4 choices as the one you wanted to see opened. It was my 3rd choice among them due to the possibilities that lie within, but those others will have to wait.

    This pack as most due had the potential for 2 HOFs and both where in there. Both where off center in different ways.

    The sequence did break on the second card to yield a nice Gern Nagler. Not the black beauty I still hope for from a sequence break image

    The second half of the sequence of this pack I'm very familiar with, this is (I think) the third pack in which I've pulled the Soltau, Tunnel, Dooley cards. Sadly there is another one of those waiting for me in those other packs.

    Other than the centering, the cards were in great shape!




    Thanks for joining me and watching the rips

    Merry Christmas

    Scott ... thanks for sharing. While the last pack didn't bring you what you were hoping for, I'm sure it was a blast ripping it. Merry Christmas and thanks again for letting us enjoy the RIPS with you.
    STAY HEALTHY!

  • Much thanks for sharing! As someone that has never had the opportunity to rip a vintage pack I live vicariously through other peoples rips like this.



    Happy Holidays!

    Nice cards and packs sir. I say just go for it and rip open the other 3 options since the 1958 pack wasn't quite what you wanted. image

    Here is the aftermath of the 36 packs...

    A small stack of submitable cards (29), a stack of stars/centered commons (

    Here are scans of the cards I pulled that I'll be sending to PSA at some point:
