Thought I would post scans from an unopened rip of 69 Topps Football, Series 1. Did it for fun as I have had the pack for a few years.
Opened it on Christmas night with my Dad. Great fun! I was 9 years old in 69 and opened a ton of these as a 9 year old including an unopened box as a Xmas present back in 69 so 41 years later it was nice to relive that. Plus it was the 1st year Topps went to a 10 cent pack with 12 cards.
Interesting that there were three 4in 1's in the pack. Not sure I remember that as a kid. Anyway, not a registry guy so these go raw into my set and will be nice upgrades. The McCall was the wax card. Nice to get a Johnny U and a very nice Kapp.
Cheers, Michael
