The one I bought is definitely in worse condition than yours...maybe I'll upgrade some day. But I still love it.

Thanks. I have similar memories - started collecting in the late 80's, and knew about the Brett card - but it was nothing I was going to ever be able to afford then. I never owned one at all actually until earlier this year - I'm 42, LOL.

Cashed in my ebay bucks!

I, too, used my ebay bucks to help grab up some cardboard, these two PSA 9 green tints...

This pair of cards was obviously graded before PSA started putting "Green Tint" on the slabs, but there is only one 'official' GT PSA 9 Craig in the pop report. And in looking at the history of sales, I only found one 'regular' PSA 9 that was actually a greenie...and it was sold back in 2008. A ridiculously tough card to find.

Nice cards. The one green tint I know I have at home is a real greenie...because it's Dallas Green. (green smiley)
