Here's the way I look at. Ripping baseball cards is the only thing I enjoy that I can get some money back for. Never got money back from a woman. Never got money back from drinking and eating. But Baseball cards I can get some money back for. Lol
That's the spirit, lol..you only go around once and this hobby is meant to be enjoyed! Though I admit I wish I hadn't opened as many packs as I did back when they were dirt cheap, lol...
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.
Was going to save it for last but can't hold out any longer. Ripping the 1969 cello. Now I have it on good authority (think Yankees Angels Padres) that this pack contains neither Aaron or Clemente.
But I want to rip it anyway!
Card showing. Dinged bottom left corner but I knew that already.
Cash and Perranoski look sharp! Thanks for sharing!

Chris - If you enjoy purchasing packs and opening them, then I hope you continue to do so. I KNOW you enjoy doing it. Best of luck with the 72s.
STAY HEALTHY!

Chris is one of the nicest guys you'll meet even if he does like to rip open baseball packs.
I think you are due for a big hit on those 1972 packs. They looked really nice when I looked them over. Good luck!!

Awesome stuff, Chris! Thanks for sharing them with us.

Card 129 on the checklist- Bill McCool.
Seriously! There was a player named McCool and nobody has ever mentioned it? (to my knowledge)
Man, I wish you would have pulled the McCool.
