Where are you seeing Topps "Factory Sets" from the 1970s?
I started collecting via wax packs in 1970, and started buying cards, from Larry Fritsch, in 1975. "Factory" sets were never seen or heard of, until Topps began issuing them in the mid-1980s. Even the big dealers like Fritsch and Renata Galasso bought 12,000-card cases, and had to hand-collate all the cards into individual sets.
