Who Opened These Kellogg's Cards and Saved Them in the Wrapper? Great idea

I've had these packs for a long time.  All were opened by someone else.  I finally decided to write about them and how they survived.  Two of the packs (Blyleven, Sauer) were missing enough wrapper that the card was sticking out a bit.  The Griffey pack was opened on the right side but there also was a slice in the wrapper from top to bottom on the front.



The Griffey was as I expected.  The slice across the front also impacted the card, which is now cracked from that.  What impressed me about the others was the amazing color of the cards.  They really do jump out as being new, even though some are from 1970.



 

I would expect similar results from packs from 1970 - 1978.  Wrappers from 1979 and 1980 didn't seal all of the time, so I would not expect the results to be the same.  I might post some 1980 packs soon.
