I need to wipe the drool of envy from my iPad screen.
Amazing stuff , John! I recall trying to help you with misfits that would identify the 2nd series sheet, as you had all the 1st series figured out. Despite the yes, many thousands of these cards that I have, I don’t seem to run into the serious miscut cards lately. Did you determine the layout of the 2nd series? I know this is a show and tell, not a show and sell, but if you wanted to move an unopened pack someday, I’d be very interested. I would like to find a wrapper too. I haven’t ever looked for one, but seeing your awesome display here makes me desire one. Thanks so much for sharing!

I’m not going to compete with the quality of the work John is showing.
Maybe the quantity though... But I bought two more good sized lots this week , one which had a low grade Bradshaw in it. That allows me to slide the final card of the set into its binder slot!! Oh wait...the way I wrote that might make it seem like I finally finished the set. Well, true...but it is my 17th full set. I have another 12 sets partially (mostly) full with binders/sheets awaiting the last ones. (A dozen more Bradshaw cards are needed) And I have another large group of 11 sets started that I don’t have put in binders yet... but maybe this month when I get a few days off. That would make 40 partial sets. Kinda silly, eh? Collect what you like...

One of my favorite sets as a kid. I busted a ton of packs in 1971; I was six. In 1977 I went into a local candy store with my family and found a partial box of 2nd series cello packs on sale. After much whining I got them all. Wish I still had them intact...one had a Bart Starr on top and one had a Namath showing.
Recently I purchased a small collection with some 1971s and some posters and game cards that were untouched. It was quite nostalgic opening crisp Topps posters for the first time. One of the handled posters was OJ and it turned out to have a beautiful vintage signature on it.
