My first post and sharing my newest 1975 Topps item

I have "observed" on this board for a long time and have just received an item back from PSA that I was so excited about that I just had to share. I have been captured by the multi-colored pieces of the 1975 Topps set ever since I laid eyes on them. (I realize I share that passion with many others.)
A couple of years ago, a board member mentioned how a GAI graded pack with Brett on the front and Yount on the back was selling on Ebay. The pack was mislabeled as a mini and being GAI, obviously there were valid doubts.
Well, I took a chance and bought the pack and I am glad I did. I finally got a chance to show it to Steve at the March Philly show and after the crossover, the pack is now safely slabbed in a PSA 9. I have searched past posts on how to post pictures. I hope they show up OK, but please forgive me if they don't. I'll get them up some time. Thanks for looking.

Current obsession, all things Topps 1969 - 1972
What would something like this go for in a auction?
I understand if the question would rather not be answered

What strikes me about it, is that Brett looks like a real baseball player (in 1975). He didnt need steroids, or didnt need to look like the Incredible Hulk.
That Brett card is always going to be a classic, and great centering.
nice pack!!!

While I don't think I will ever be a "regular" contributor to the boards, I will try and chime in more often than every two years. I'm thinking at least every 7 months.
