Jason LFirst (after wetting myself with glee over owning a whole box of 1954 Topps), I would say that a box of unopened cards is much different than Anthony's COLLECTION of unopened packs.
I wouldn't be able to break up that run of packs, either. That stays unopened.
BUT, the unopened box of 1954 Topps is totally different!
That would be an EVENT!!!
I would get a few friends together, gather up some drinks of everyone's choosing, put on the Cubs game, and distribute the packs and take turns opening them.
(Of course, everyone will be monitored and if anyone is failing to hold their liquor, then their packs will be taken away and they will only be allowed to watch the game).
Edited to add: With my luck of course, the unopened material would turn out to be 1988 Donruss cards wrapped in 1954 Topps wrappers!
