I was digging around today and found some packs of 1982 OPC hockey stickers. I sort of remember buying them back at least 25 years ago.But I notice the some of the packs the glue that was used to seal the packs shut has dried up.This has caused the packs to open.In some cases it is all 4 sides.I know these were never searched.So what ever they left the factory with is still inside the pack. I am pretty sure that I only saved then because Gretzky was on the wrapper.Really a nice picture of Mr. Gretzky. I was sort of wondering what I should do with these packs.Should I try to reseal them,Just let them go and make sure I tell anyone that may want one for the Gretzky picture that the glue has let go. Or just scrap the lot. Not like it is a lot of money but I was planning on trying to sell them as a odd ball item for anyone that collects Gretzky items.Any thoughts.Maybe someone else has had the same type of problem.Thanks.
 
I had / have boxes of the early years of OPC Stickers and what you say,

" ..... the glue that was used to seal the packs shut has dried up. This has caused the packs to open. In some cases it is all 4 sides" is TRUE.

Unfortunely those boxes of stickers were NOT sealed!

I simply kept for personal uses since I have most of the sets OPC / Topps and a monster box of singles.

Once in a while, I'll open some boxes, supply now low, to restock my singles.
