I will say that when I was a part time dealer in the late 80's in the same general geographic area, the 72 highs were regarded among my fellow dealers as the toughest of the 1970-73's. So maybe they were just not as robustly distributed as in prior years?

I bought a high series set from Fritsch in the early 90’s. Def. came from wax packs as a dozen or so cards had gum stains on the back
