OK, so the link doesn't work.

Go to the network54 board "hockey".
You'll see a thread titled "Where were you in 1976"

There is a video of the o-pee-chee factory making wax boxes. It's pretty cool.

Cool! Thanks for posting. For those of you interested, that's in London, Ontario.

It'd be hilarious if the music from Laverne and Shirley was playing during the video.

Very cool. Although they seem to be pretty rough with these cards. No one cared about card conditions in 1976 especially the lunch ladies.

Thanks for posting. No wonder a good percentage of the cards weren't mint straight out of the packs. They bang the packs on the table, the machines look like they have solid metal indexing the cards and the line operators aren't even wearing gloves! So iI guess if you get a card from a pack with mustard stains on it, it doesn't necessarily mean the pack was resealed. I would have thought the production line would be fully automated to pack the cards and place them in a box without workers having to do it manually.
