1968 Topps BB Rack Packs
For me, 1968 Topps BB 1st Series Rack Packs, purchased at the Woolworth's department store. I don't remember any of the cards from my first purchase, but do recall anxiously waiting to return later to purchase more. It wasn't until later that summer that I purchased my first 5 cent wax pack (in a different town). Up until then, I didn't know wax packs existed. I was more thrilled with the insert game card than the actual cards in that pack. At Christmas that year, my parents gave me a Topps Fun Pack which had several 1968 Topps BB 6th and 7th series packs (1 card to a pack). I remember getting a Manny Jiminez and a Phil Roof. That would begin a trend of pulling plenty of Phil Roof cards over the next three years.
