1984 Topps Super Wax Box "Ripping for George Brett Submissions"

Welcome to my latest installment of "Ripping for George Brett Submissions"

1984 Topps Super 36 packs, $8 from the internet

in 1984 someone at Topps decided that they would make a SUPER SIZED Set of the "Top 30" guys in their 1984 base issue.

At one card per pack, unfortunately you can see whos in the pack right through the wrapper:

I was fortunate enough to pull a Brett:

But when i opened the pack to see how it looked....

BAM! ughhhhhhhhhhhhh Diamond Cut, crinkled corner, just YUCK!

Here's a closeup of the Ryan damaged corner:

i opened the pack with Schmidt, and their was surface damage and a corner was creased. this box was not messed with imo, as the packs were nice and together. just poor quality control from many years ago.

on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being Best) i give this rip: 2 due to the death of the Brett lol

Until Next Time,
Eric
