I've had these two '58 FB Cellos for several months that I have been keeping for a Christmas rip. Both of these packs were PSA 7s and both had some pretty nice cards inside. I love ripping these packs, 27 HOFers in a set of 132 cards!

The first pack turned out to be an interesting one in that it only contained 6 unique cards! Yes, you heard that right every card had a duplicate. Now image if it contained some nice HOFs, maybe even a Cleveland Brown HOFer! In fact the pack contained 3 HOFers including a Brown. Sadly it wasn't THE Brown but two nice Grozas was a nice hit.

Here they are:













The second pack yielded some more nice HOFers although no major ones.













Thanks for watching...

    nice cards!! i bought either seven or eight of these packs a year ago; all are psa graded and are 7's and 8's except for one that was a 5; opened the 5 on christmas day last year with my buddy and got about three or four dupes within the pack; i know two were packers team cards, also got a few of the ones you got including em tunnell; cards were pack fresh (as the saying goes) but the centering was for the most part horrendous (the tunnell was the best card in the pack: an easy 8, maybe a 9); havent opened any of the others though (one has a gifford on the front; that one will never be opened!!)

    it never ceases to amaze me how poor the quality control was back then; its bad enough they couldnt cut the cards properly but its equally bad that they couldnt properly distribute them into the packs either!!image
