Topps produced a 3rd series of 72's ---- 264 to 351 and a majority of these scarce high numbers were destroyed during flooding of the plant in the summer of 1972 by Hurricane Agnes.The hurricane severely flooded the Susquehanna and Lackawanna Rivers causing extensive damage to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre metropolitan area. In both Pennsylvania and New Jersey combined, over 43,000 structures were either destroyed or significantly damaged. Overall, Agnes caused 128 fatalities and nearly $3 billion (1972 USD) in damage, though more recently, it is estimated that there were $2.1 billion (1972 USD) in losses associated with the storm. Due to the significant effects, the name Agnes was retired in the spring of 1973. Through the years as I saw the set's high numbered commons rise in price, I always wanted to know the reason for this. Why couldn't I as a kid, buy a pack of 72 football cards when the plant which was producing these rarities was just 90 miles to the North of me ? I witnessed and survived Agnes along with the damage and grief it caused, yet these high numbered cards have been saved, maybe from a person in Chicago , L.A., Houston or Saint Louis who bought and took care of the cards as they escaped West from Pennsylvania and the Hurricane. The 72 issue has risen to be one of the most expensive of any Topps set made, sitting near or at the top with the 1955, 57 and 58 sets. Whomever may buy this set, enjoy it, save it, take care of it.
