I assume you wanted to see the 75 Mini sheet? If you want the others LMK. Sorry the photo of the entire sheet would not load.

Guesstimate on value that I can tell my neighbor Tony?

Fred -- very neat item. I have no idea on value but there is a long 1975 Mini thread with a lot of expertise on the Collectors Universe PSA registry board. It is usually on page 1. Someone there may have some input for you

Hi Al:

Thanks for the suggestion. But after posting and waiting a few days for ANY comment, none have responded on the PSA forums.

Seems like eveyone there is caught up in their most recent PSA 7's and 8"s to care abount an uncut sheet.

Strange........

Agreed Whitey. While I have a set and have posted a couple of times in that long thread, some folks in there are fanatics about the set and I thought they would at least appreciate and discuss your sheets and speculate on value. Sorry about the bum steer

Thanks Al! Also Thanks for the note on the CU forum. Hope it generates something.

Hi Guys,

I'm a first time poster here, but have lurked here for awhile now. I really appreciate this thread and the good information you all have provided on the historical distribution of the Mini's.

I'm an avid collector of '75 Topps Mini's in both graded and raw form since 2008. I'm also an avid participant in the Mini thread on the PSA forum going by the user id "Indy78." I guess I'm one of those Mini fanatics over there, lol.

Regarding the Mini sheet, I don't know too much about them and have no interest in collecting them. I saw one with Yaz on it sell on eBay last month for around $675. Others I recall going for between $600-$800 plus depending upon condition. If that sheet were in decent shape and I had to make a guess on what it would bring, I would think one could get $800-$1,000 for it because it has the Brett and Yount. With that said, if it were me and the sheet was in great shape, I would consign it with an auction house. If it was in not-so-great condition, I'd probably try to sell it myself on eBay.

The latest discussion we've been having over there in the 75 Mini thread is on whether anyone has ever seen or had reliable knowledge of the existence of 75 Mini's being distributed to dealers way back when in cut card cases. I would appreciate it if anyone could share their experience in this area if they've seen or heard of a Mini cut card case. There's some recent speculation that perhaps it's possible that the 20,000-card lot originating from Mr. Conlon's Mini collection auctioned by REA around 2009 may have been from a cut card case. I'd be curious if anyone knows anything about those topics and would be willing to share.

Thanks!
