Here is a video of me opening up an original 1962 Topps Baseball 10 cent 12 card Cello Pack. I purchased a group of these several years ago from the family of a store owner who closed down his store in the early 1960s and saved some items in a closet. I sent many of these to be graded by PSA, but since this one has a long edge opening, I decided to break it open and share the experience. There was a very nice well centered Warren Spahn card hidden inside. There is purposely NO volume on these videos.

  • thank you for sharing this experience ..as soon as i pay off some old college debt in 2 years ill be clearing over 700$ a month after bills andi plan on doing alot of vintage pack breaks on youtube since it would be fun for me and of course fun for the viewers..any plans on doing any more of these?

  • @sciontcdude I opened up over 100 packs before I ever thought of taping any. I may do a couple more, but not soon. Thanks, Bill

  • where did u get the pack at

  • @kevinww2 Hi. That is just one of the packs from the lot of full hobby boxes of 1960s Topps Baseball cello packs I got from an old toy store. They were stored away for about 40+ years before they were uncovered and offered to me.. Bill

  • i notice that the cards are curved. does this diminish their value? or do they become straight again after putting them in a top loader. sorry if this question is dumb, but I am new to collecting.

  • @philaboston Hi. Some of the cards are slightly curved from age, but it does not affect value or grade and they do flatten out easily in a top loader or PSA grading slab. Bill

  • That Spahnnie looked like a beauty! I'm a Phillies fan and I love that '62 Callison card with the Connie Mack Stadium signage in the background. Johnny's career and life were too short, but the nice thing is that the cards make them all live forever.

  • luv the vid

    

  • Love this video.

  • Very cool! How much did you play for the box? Would love to have watched you rip open the entire box.

  • It's funny how much Hardy looks like Maris in that picture

  • @DwighttFrye Hi racist...What does speaking English have to do with playing baseball?

  • 62 Spahn...did you get it graded? I like the woodies, I'm interested to see if you got the Spahn graded.

  • The good old days,when most of the players knew how to speak English.

  • I cam to this video...

  • Nice
