Mark, Ed thank you both! The auction did have quite the selection of types available. And after a quick glance at BR I agree, Viox was a very good hitter at all levels of pro ball. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

OK.... there was only one sheet known (and I own it)... BUT there is a single copy of the the Lloyd graded by SGC (none by PSA).... one DiHigo by SGC (none by PSA) and one Foster by SGC (none by PSA)... there are two Marcelles that I know of....

I own the DiHigo, Lloyd and Foster and the sheet. Still on the look out for the Marcelle. I do not believe that the Larry Brown or George Scales have been seen as singles (outside of the sheet).

By the way, I have the sheet listed on eBay now that I have the individual cards. Best, Al

Al,

That Mallorquina sheet is unbelievable. Is Beckett the only company that professionally grades uncut sheets?

Thanks Scott....

Unsure, but I would imagine so. It is the only company that has a holder that is big enough. I typically prefer SGC, but they did not have a holder and I was nervous that I would damage it if I did not protect it, so I went with Beckett.

Perhaps if there was an uncut sheet of a small issue that would fit in a holder for PSA and / or SGC they may do it, but I am unsure. I can't think of a sheet / issue that would fulfill those parameters, but perhaps someone else does.

Great pickups, everyone! Ed -- it looks like you've had a busy month -- congrats on those in particular.

I'd like to say thank you to Brad for this amazing 1.5 Cobb -- a wonderful transaction all around!

Cheers,
Steve
