Mixed Series Boxes

[deweyinthehall]

From BBCE in response to my request for sheet images:

Let me ask my friend if he will share those with me. I don’t actually have those on my computer and I would go to him if I needed help with that series. I know hes not a big fan of sharing this, but Ill see what I can do. Obviously, he doesn’t want them to end up in the wrong hands. I see resealed packs all day long and lots of times it’s the order of the cards that helps determine packs if I am on the fence. Thanks! Steve


-----
is he saying he pulls all the cards out to see the 'order of cards'? This would mean the packs are no longer 'sealed'?

Something is still confusing to me about all of this....

LOL I'm the friend he mentions and I've shared all the sheets with you conspiracy theorist.

I knew it! You’re holding back on us 1966 6th Series and 1969 3rd Series!

Hey - just because the way the shadow of the flag falls against Buzz Aldrin's boots makes it clear the ambient light is coming through the upper windows on stage 7 at the Warner lot, does NOT mean I'm a conspiracy theorist!

HAHAHA

And for those who may not know, I've been tracking the opening of pre 1977 packs for close to 30 years. As some also know, the order of the cards in the pack is not random, def. a pattern to it although it depends on the year/pack type etc. and is NOT 100% fool proof.

Packs with white or clear wrappers are easiest to see who's on top and bottom. Darker wax packs are much harder to tell who's showing on the top under the gum. And no, I won't be sharing any specifics.

So just to sort of close this loop - do you have images of the various sheets from this era (at the moment the one that is gathering the most attention on these boards is 1966 6th), and can you share?

I’ve shared them all with Kevin already.

As any of us who opened packs, rack packs, or 500 count boxes, can attest, the collation methods used often gave rise to the same run of cards being found.
