That is probably the toughest post '58 pack- it's on a lot of want lists. I don't think I've seen more than one in 2-3 years. OPC's are pretty easy. Best of luck!

there are two 1971 cello packs up on ebay - i think they are both GAI graded.

a 71 wax is going to cost you a minimum of 500 for a decent graded one. nobody will probably sell you one privately unless it is for top dollar. they come up on occasion but always get tons of action. don't buy a raw one, it is probably junk which is why it's still raw.

oh yeah , on those "grocery" cellos , if you are looking for one pack , hold out for a wax or true cello with the box. the is the 1st I have seen these grocery cellos and have my doubts. especially since he has 1970's from different series. if no one has seen these and they could't have been many made, how does one person get them from the 1st and 3rd series?

the opc's are easier after the mastro auctions , they will be tough again 2 years from now once the mastro stuff gets out of dealers hands . opc's were selling for over 300 a year ago and can new be picked up cheaply. I would wager that they will sell for over 300 again 2 years from now.

There is one in the upcoming EAC Gallery/Mr. Mint auction ending 4/6/05 (non-sports) and 4/7/05 (sports).

Thanks fsjeter, but I could not find the pack listed on that site......I can pickup OPC packs for reasonable right now just need this one pack to complete my 1970 (year I was born) to 1991 (last year topps did wax packs) graded run. Well if any of you see any let me know, I do not mind parting with the cash to complete this run.

here is one from a very reputable dealer 71 topps wax

however, i don't know how often this site is updated so it may no longer be available.

Thanks LD, I apprciate the link, I saw that pack (and the dealer is very reputable)...but it has a 1970 wrapper on it. That may make it more rare/valuable but I want the normal 1971 wrapper. If anyone find/knows of one please PM me, thanks again.

I am fortunate to have 2 unopened wax, 2 rack packs (1 with Rose showing on the back) and 1 7th series cello.

I am looking to trade with someone who can help me complete my 1971 psa 7 set.

None of these are graded but I will be glad to submit to GAI if I can find a true partner to help with my set.
