He is not always there. He has a son who often works the store. He may have some baseball expertise as well but am not sure
I realize just bringing pictures isn't helpful, otherwise we could've collectively figured this out already. I just want to stop by with pictures to begin the conversation and to be able to tell the seller the expert has told me he needs to see the cards themselves.

Sports Cards Plus is built on unopened wax. They move really big volume, probably one of the biggest sellers of wax to the end user in the country as far as card shops go. I've always gotten the impression that singles aren't a focus, though they do have a decent selection in their display cases.

Jeff, his son, is knowledgeable in a lot of ways but I wouldn't say he has much experience in vintage as far as I know. Regardless, it's worth a trip for me to go over there and at least have a conversation, maybe Charlie has more expertise than I assumed. Appreciated.
