Looks like this is it:



I did some further research and I found this:



So the high numbers only came in the above blue/red wrappers?

So if you were a gambler the only path to making your money back would be to a pull a Pafko from every pack and a few PSA 10's. I often look at the equity of opening packs and boxes, and even as prices get crazy, if you break it down often it's around break-even. This one not so much.

This one is a luxury item not intended to be broken up; would you break up a diamond tennis bracelet into smaller pieces? Definitely no money in breaking it due to the heavy likelihood of way off-centered cards.

Can never do unopened packs. Even if I had the money I could not resist the temptation to open them lol

To buy that that lot I would have to install a security system in my home for that piece alone. High or low number multiple packs from 1952 Topps is a huge find could be said a holy grail of sports wax pack finds.

If the high numbers only came in the red, white, and blue wrappers have any unopened packs surfaced? This is the first time I ever saw that wrapper. If a wrapper still exists there is a chance a pack still exists.
