Looking at the 1973 set now -

1) Any information on or images of cello cases, rack boxes or rack cases - how many packs/box, boxes/case?

2) Any images of vending boxes or cases

3) Any grocery pack/box/case/images - the only reason I know for sure they existed is that there is a sell-sheet advertising them

4) Anyone have any information/pics of the 3 different Wide World of Sports records offered on wrappers, or the batting glove or the umpire pitch counter?

Finally - distribution:

From what I've read (here, mostly) it seems the 1973 sets distributed BOTH by series and as all 660 at one time. Did where you lived make the difference in which manner you got the cards? Did some people see all 660 from the very beginning and some only saw issuance by series?

Those pesky blue team checklists - I believe they were only issued with high number packs, so they would only have been available in areas which received cards by series - does this sound right? I also read somewhere that it is possible only rack packs contained a checklist - anyone recall if this could be true?

Many thanks as always!
