On the box bottom top right, the odds: "Approximate odds per box of finding (*Sequentially Numbered) : *N43 Autograph 1;270..." etc.. is that 1 in 270 boxes, or 1 in 270 packs ?

    Topps went all out with the presentation here:

    Please tell me there is more than 1 hit in these boxes. The Doumit card was depressing. 8 of 24 packs:

    Let's hope you enjoy the remaining box a bit more.

    STAY HEALTHY!

    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.

    Don't some years, (or is it all years?) have a card hidden in between the box sides? Thought I remembered hearing that at some point.

    Really ? will be sure to take this box apart :) thanks

    Packs 9 - 16. Some relief with a framed Ichiro. Just a jersey though, not a silk or anything better. Someone's little Chihuahua (pronounced chee-huuuahhh-huuuahhh) got to the corners of a couple of the minis.

    There are 3 hits per hobby box. You have saved the best for last - third hit should be an auto, plate, or rip card. May I suggest you get a plate or rip card? ;)

  • OddRodzOddRodz Posts: 645 ✭✭✭

    I wish I had taken your suggestion properly. Strike 3 ! ugh. Ichiro is cool though. Him and Pete are the Hit Gods.

    Well this box was a FAIL monetarily. But the enjoyment and fun factor of opening it outweighed the.. the ....... well screw that ! I wanted a HIT !!! B)o:)B)








    Peeled the box apart and no hidden gem anywhere.

    Forgot to mention I did get the Winning Beard Man card.

    A bit of trivia here: What card pictured on the front of the box doesn't exist?

  • OddRodzOddRodz Posts: 645 ✭✭✭

    Would bet the Napoleon pube card.

  • WaltWalt Posts: 1,275 ✭✭✭

    nope.

    The mantle? If that does exist then it's a very cool card, and if it doesn't, then how come lol?

    Always looking for OPC "tape intact" baseball wax boxes, and 1984 OPC baseball PSA 10's for my set. Please PM or email me if you have any available.

    What is considered the "best" year of A & G to rip?

  • OddRodzOddRodz Posts: 645 ✭✭✭

    '06 I would vote for. For absolute no other reason than it is the most expensive B) Danicnt Patrick may be the draw there. Since she hasn't actually done anything in a decade worthy of note, other than HO I'M So Pretty' commercials a few years ago, that may have changed.

    2006 also has Tyson and Hogan.

    Ty for the info. I have always liked the bold colors of the auto cards from this series. The mix of sports and cultural celebs is also a draw.
