Hello fellow pack collectors and thanks for your help with the last group of packs. The 32nd
group of packs has already been posted.
Here's the next group of packs for your consideration.
We are trying to organize individual card packs into groups based on availability - ranging from extremely rare to common.
You can seen how far we've gotten using the drop down menus under Scarcity on the top menus.
Express your opinions! Argue with each other! Disagree with our previous picks.

Just a couple random thoughts before posting.
Hippie Tattoos, Mod Initial Stickers, and Bottoms Up all have great wrapper designs in my opinion.
The guy on back slapper stickers looks like a 50 year old homeless man. Was Fleer implying that children should drop a nickel on their product to go out and harass the homeless population by slapping funny stickers on them? And also, the guy seems to enjoy the mockery being imposed upon him. You can almost hear the words “You silly rascal” coming out of his mouth.
Im probably over analyzing a wrapper design. That’s just what we do around here.
Another point. Why does back slapper man have square eyes? I thought maybe they were just a pair of odd shaped spectacles, but upon zooming in and further investigation they are clearly just square eyes. I have never met a square eyed man. Have you?
Remember that we are looking for the Fleer (US) version of Back Slapper Stickers, not the more common Harold P Cowan (Canadian) version!
He's got square eyeballs in both countries - not sure why!
I'd go with:
Hippie Tattoos limited - used to be hard to find but lately, I see lots
Back Slapper Stickers (US) scarce
Bottoms Up Uncommon
Jets 1c limited
Mod Initial Stickers rare - never seen one. Have you?
I feel like I could make an argument for bottoms up moving up one class from uncommon. You just don’t see that pack for sale often.
I agree that the Bottoms Up is at least "limited."
