1951 Bowman Group Break cancelled
1951 Bowman Set Break (324 spots available)
(paid ad) I am breaking up my complete 1951 Bowman set, featuring the popular rookie cards of Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays. I have recently finished upgrading the set to replace the cards in poor or fair condition. The average condition of the set is now a solid VG+ (3.39 GPA), and none of the cards have any holes, tears, heavy creases, or writing on either the front or back. Condition issues may include wax stains on the back, corner wear, light edge chipping, surface wrinkles, or light creases. Slots are available in three pricing tiers, depending on how many you want to purchase. 1 card: $35 3 cards: $100 10 cards: $300 Out of the 324 total cards, there are: 30 Hall of Famers 22 Rookie cards (including 5 HOFers) 72 High numbers 16 Graded cards 248 cards in VG or better condition Key cards in the set include: 1) #253 Mickey Mantle (R) SGC 1.5 2) #305 Willie Mays (R) PSA 2.5 3) #1 Whitey Ford (R) BVG 3 4) #165 Ted Williams PSA 3 5) #2 Yogi Berra PSA 2.5 6) #31 Roy Campanella PSA 3.5 7) #80 Pee Wee Reese PSA 5 8) #134 Warren Spahn PSA 5 9) #198 Monte Irvin - Excellent (raw) 10) #232 Nellie Fox (R) SGC 3 11) #32 Duke Snider PSA 3 Most cards are in either VG or VG-Ex condition. The total value of this set if broken up for auction is $8000+, and the 11 key cards listed above account for approximately three-fourths of the total. Mantle is both the most valuable and the lowest condition card in the set, with a technical grade of 1.5 due to the centering, but it has a strong image and the card is otherwise in VG condition. I believe every one of the remaining 323 cards in the set would grade at least a 2. That isnt to be taken as any sort of guarantee, but it is my assessment as a conservative grader. I accept PayPal but am open to other forms of payment as well if, for example, you would prefer to write a check. (You can both contact me with questions and remit PayPal to gscheyd@hotmail.com.) Lots of 1-3 raw commons will ship in a plain envelope protected by a Card Saver II. Mantle and Mays will be sent Priority Mail with insurance coverage and signature confirmation. All others will be sent by bubble mailer (or upgraded to a box if necessary to accommodate volume). For cards other than Mays and Mantle, USPS insurance may be purchased through me at cost by request of the buyer. If all 324 entries have been sold, the drawing will be held on July 22nd and hosted on www.random.org. In the event that not all entries have been sold prior to the projected drawing date, the drawing may be postponed until August (date TBD but no later than 3 days after the final entry has been sold). In the event that August ends before all entries have been sold, all entry payments will be refunded and the drawing cancelled. You can email or message me to reserve spots or can claim them by replying to the thread. I will send you a confirmation when payment has cleared. I will update the top of this post with a tally of the number of available spots remaining. (I'm having a little trouble getting the photos down to the size limit, but I'll post what I can here, and you can email me for the large hi-res versions of the smaller photos below.) Now let's have some fun! Last edited by darwinbulldog; 07-25-2019 at 02:48 PM. |
