The bottom line though is these packs do
not consist of new unsold Topps cards repackaged by a jobber just weeks after the end of that year's baseball season to be sold as rack packs by mass market merchandisers such as F.W. Woolworth, S.S. Kresge, W.T. Grant or Zellers. No one to my knowledge has vouchsafed that he remembers seeing these Xmas rack packs in five-and-dime stores or supermarket checkout lines in the 1950's or early 1960's. Moreover the cards contained are not necessarily pack fresh. Therefore they're a fraud.
