    I’m surprised only 200+ graded in total. Is 1977 OPC very difficult to find?

    A lot don’t get submitted because most of the time you’ll find centering like this….

    That's an amazing box, Tom! I self-submitted a PSA 9 Ryan years ago. It is a brutally tough card to find centered on front and not miscut on back. How is yours on back side?

    Yeah I know! Been hunting this card for decades, it’s a unicorn! No green on back edge thankfully

    Such a tough card to find centered and with no snow on the surface. This card is not only centered, it has no snow

    Beautiful cards. Too bad you didn't open this box a few years ago because they would have all been graded 10's.

    Brett and Reggie cards are sick too.

    I opened 3 of these boxes years ago when Steve was selling them for $300-400 / box. Great fun.

    I've seen plenty of runs like this from 77 Topps wax and vending, but never OPC. You've cracked a treasure. Well done.

    Beauties! I don’t know much about OPC, was there a reason they used different photos on some cards? Was it usually Expos and Blue Jays players that received this treatment?

    I'd bet you'd have to open 25 more OPC boxes to get that many well-centered ones. That's a great box.

    Incredible find bruh!!! those cards are unbelievable. Most of these cards look like 10's. Will you submit them to PSA or somewhere SGC?

    On the Ryan, the only thing that hurts you a bit from getting a 10 is the back centering. I think it has to be 75/25 on the back and side to side looks like 95/5 or 90/10 at best. But it is the best looking one I have ever seen.

    Work hard and you will succeed!!

    Love that Ryan! I have hit the record breaker in high quality many times but never the standard issue.
