In Colorado, I have a friend who received a shoebox of cards from a coworker in 1997. The coworker cleaned out his grandparents home and found the box in the attic. Inside the shoebox was five partially-opened packs of 1952 Topps, two of which had #311 in it along with a few hundred other cards.

One that's been opened, searched, and resealed?

Is that related to the "I grabbed this FedEx package from someone's porch" find?

Not to be confused with the "Don't let strangers from Craigslist in your house" find?

The Joe Jackson autograph find signed two years after his death and authenticated by Bill Mastro in the South Chicago Salvation Army soup kitchen.
