Series 5 was cards #460 thru 546 (and a DP checklist). His vending box seems to only including half the series which came from the right half of the 264 card sheet.
Robert Bruce St. Clair was an American professional football offensive tackle who played 11 seasons for the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League. Known for his intelligence and towering size, at 6 ft 9 in tall, St. Clair earned All-Pro honors nine times and is enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Being an unopened collector/ripper myself, this is my favorite thread on the forum. Every time I check in here I keep thinking I need to start my own trailer park version of this epic rip thread. ...not that there's anything wrong with trailer parks.
Nice Cards....
As always - Very Impressive. The Midas Touch

UFFDAH would you mind moving forward letting us know what card numbers are covered in the series you open packs from. I have no idea for the 1968 topps series 1 and most other series/years.

Are you buying these packs recently or are these things you've had in your stash for a while? I'm curious whether it's all about clearing the decks or just the thrill of the chase.

Can't remember exactly when I bought them but opened them back in May as part of my first RIP in the new house.
Watch Out!! You'll cut your fingers on those corners and edges!

This perhaps:
That represents what was in the box.
I’ll take the dozen or so Olivia’s lol
Current obsession, all things Topps 1969 - 1972
John, what about two dozen checklists?
Uffdah,
If you sell any of the sporting news all-stars that you are not grading, let me know. I'd love to upgrade a few really off-centered ones in my set.
A stack of the rest of them that are well centered.
Oh yeah.
On of my favorite FB issues ever.
They don't make names like this anymore......could go a lot of directions in trying to figure it out......
The colours are simply amazing!!!
I believe Johnny Crow is 2nd series? Was it common to have mixed series cello packs back then?
I just looked up Crow and you are right - he is in the 2nd series. I don't know the answer though to your question.....

Great centering and color on the Steelers team card. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to the rest of the pack!
I've got 2 more sleeved cards to share. Not centering snazzy though. Gotta love fresh 66 year old cards!!

49ers legend in pristine condition!
Congrats on the Hornung rookie!!! Any chance that it will land as a PSA 7? If better centered would be an 8.
Actually, Hornung's Rookie is a 58. I've pulled both 58 Hornung and Unitas Rookies. Would love to pull a Starr!!!
My mistake congrats all the same. Big name player.
57
Good Gravy - correct. I need a beer!!! 57 🤠

68 1ST Series is cards 1 - 109
Anticipation!!!!!!
Good Luck!!!!
Live long, and prosper.
Seaver and Carew cards, please centered and in mint condition!

Or Willie Mays!!!

Good start…nice centering.
I see it now.
An hors d'oeuvre, then some appetizers, a salad, the main course, and dessert.
No doubt these are on, or have been to, the West Coast. Perhaps the desert is the slabbed product?
I think you are right since I already feel Fuller.

Uffdah lives the sports card life I'd live once I win the lottery.
Absolute blazers!!!! Those are what a PSA 11 would look like if that was the scale...
68's look so good in high grade. Can't wait to see the others.
Are the standard yellow print lines on the 68s still ok with PSA?
