Graded PSA 8 NM-MT, this 1973 O-Pee-Chee Baseball Wax Pack carries a population of 20 at this grade level. Manufactured in London, Ontario by O-Pee-Chee under license from Topps Chewing Gum, the original 10-cent wax wrapper features bilingual English and French text, denoting ten picture cards and one stick of bubble gum inside. Unlike its American counterpart's multi-series distribution, the 1973 Canadian release famously issued all 660 cards in a single series.
Unopened wax packs from 1970s Canadian distribution remain exceptionally scarce compared to standard Topps releases due to smaller regional print runs and lower original survival rates. Potential contents in the 1973 set include the Mike Schmidt rookie card (#615), Roberto Clemente's final regular-issue card, and key Hall of Fame subjects including Nolan Ryan, Hank Aaron, and Willie Mays.Show more
