show your strip cards
1 Attachment(s)
I enjoy strip cards as I know a few other members do too. They are one of the few areas of pre-war collecting where you can still do it on a budget. Well, unless you fight over some obscure ones. While Lew doesn't think these are strip cards, and is probably correct, that is the way they are listed, 1915 W-Unc. Show some of your stip cards if you would like to .....:) I was very excited to get these in the mail today.

Can't beat the handcrafted cuts. Never seen those 1915 WUNCs. Earliest baseball strips?

On the subject of whether or not they are strip cards heere are some examples of one set:
|
Brian:
Which set is that? |
Phil, they look like W503s.
|
|
Phil,
Jeff is correct. The set designation is W503. |
Leon I would have been more impressed if Thorpe was in a football uniform!
|
W517 and W590
Don't forget the W590s which always come in variety of shapes and sizes, mostly mutilated.

You got that right, Paul. That's the only example I have ever seen, although I think one of the big auction houses currently has a couple of the complete team uncut sheet sets and I believe that the Giants may be in there.

???
OK, this might not be the right place for this question, BUT, how does a card marked on the holder "HAND CUT" get a numerical grade? I see from the multiple posts that some get a grade and others get an "A". Does anyone know how that process works? If the strip collectors out there submit a card for grading do you already know how it will come back based on the history of that issue or is it a crap shoot? Just curious if anyone has any opinions.
Nice cards all and thanks for sharing! |
Great question

What I have found, for the most part, is if the card meets the minimum size requirements based on the measurements listed in the SCBC, the grading company will usually give a numerical grade, otherwise it usually gets an "Authentic".
|
I've sent strip cards to both SGC and PSA and it's like playing craps. Obviously, a strip card has to have all four margins to receive a numerical grade (although, I've had exceptions). But, in my opinion, on any given strip card submission, whether one receives a grade other then "A," depends solely on the grader. Regrettably, there just isn't any ryhme or reason to the process. I'll post a pic later today of a recently submitted SGC graded Cobb strip card, that I thought was a 100% candidate for a number grade. Alas it came back authentic.
