I’ve actually tried to sell card like theses and have dealers tell me that if they bought them no one would be interested because they are not high grade.

Theses cards have been played with and kept for years and cherished as I do now.
Love 'em all. Fun to look at!

Just my thoughts anyway.

Thanks Andy.

That's a good explanation and one that is likely correct.

I appreciate it.

Here's my 55 Williams in "collector grade" that was given to me by a friend. It fits right in with my collection too.

How ya like that one?

Although rough, the Williams is completely viewable/readable and it was free. How can one go wrong there? Very nice!
