Bob's Burgers Wax Pack

I have some packs in my collection that are virtually worthless - packs made today to LOOK like older packs. I just like the aesthetic of them (and yes, I store them separately from my "legit" packs). One of those packs is Bob's Burgers. I've been seeing them pop up on eBay for $25, $40, $45, $50, $60, $250, even $750 (down from $1,500.. by Grabthar's Hammer... what a savings)! If you are at all interested in owning one of these packs, just do what I did: spend a whopping 8 bucks on the double CD (has to be the Target exclusive version). It comes free inside.

It's only worth that if somebody is willing to pay that much! (definitely not me)

Rare Pick-up! Giant Plaks.

I just added this pack to my collection! I've never seen one before. Very happy!

Issued by Topps in 1968, there are two versions of this pack - a 5 cent with one Plak and this one - a 10 cent version with two Plaks.

They were issued in crimped plastic bag type wrappers.

PSA gets it wrong!

Currently there is an eBay auction for a PSA graded Popeye Tattoo bubble gum pack that PSA has labeled as the 1956-58 issue.

The reverse of the pack is shown below and the arrow points to the zip code in the address.

The problem with this is that zip codes were not introduced until July 1, 1963 so if an address has one, it was necessarily produced after that date. In this case, this is clearly the 1966 re-issue for this title not the mid 1950 version! Oops!

I must admit that it would be very cool to see one in person some day! I was shocked that the PSA 8 sold for a relatively low price compared to what baseball stuff is selling for.

Bowman Power for Peace and Radio & TV Stars together in a single cello pack

I had never heard of this one before. The way the story goes, after Topps bought Bowman, they took excess products of both Power for Peace and Radio & TV Stars and combined them into individual cello packs and rack packs. This was also done with US Navy Victories and Sports issues too.

Super rare and you saw it here first!

Interestingly, the summer 2024 REA auction has a full box of this!

Lot Description: Incredible original unopened cello box of 1953 Bowman "TV & Radio Stars" and "Power For Peace" cards. The box houses thirty-six cello packs, with each pack containing a mixture of cards from the two different sets. This is the first such configuration that we recall seeing. This is a complete 71-year-old cello box that somehow miraculously escaped opening. The box comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange (owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material). This tremendous unopened cello box, which looks as it did when it sat on a candy-store shelf in 1953, would make an incredible addition to even the most advanced nonsport or unopened-box collection. Opening Bid $1,500.
