In general if I were going to get them authenticated I would only do the ones with a well placed autograph, that are bold not light, and one’s that are not rushed. Also, I wouldn’t do any where the auto is on the back of the card.

I really like the Bench rookie, the Kaline stand out and I like several of the Murray autos. Of course there are many others, but just a quick glimpse those caught my eye.
Thanks for your input, Mark. I guess the best way to answer your question is to say that a few years ago I never bought a graded card, but now virtually everything I buy is graded. The card-collecting world changed, so I started trying to keep up. When I start moving some of my signed cards (again, assuming they are legitimate), I want to make it an easier process and maximize value. Simple as that, really.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
