    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….

    Another banger, so hard to find this with centering like this…..

    Absolute stunners. Cannot wait to see how these beauties grade. Congrats and thanks for sharing this awesome rip!

    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?

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

    Yowzer...the Ryan has a legit shot at a 10! Good luck on the grade...

    Every card seems to be extremely well-centered...amazing. Any more Ryans?

    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.

    I used to do intermittent fasting because I was worried about overconsumption. Nowadays, I do intermittent slowing by taking naps in between naps in between naps after a good night's sleep.

    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?

  • BBBrkrrBBBrkrr Posts: 1,749 ✭✭✭✭✭

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

  • BaltimoreYankeeBaltimoreYankee Posts: 3,184 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Oh my, Tom. What great centering and crisp cards. Congrats on the great box. Keep the pix coming!

    Amazing stuff! Congratulations Tom, thanks for sharing!

  • olb31olb31 Posts: 4,017 ✭✭✭✭✭

    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.
