Thanks, Bob. I like it too, and it was under $10 bucks to boot!

This came in today and I was thrilled at how nice it is. The scans on the listing were cruddy cell phone photos:

Another lowered graded card that looks better than my higher graded one.(Below) It really makes me wonder at times if they really know what they are doing over at PSA?

Nice P/U's guys!

Aaron's RC has been high on my want list now for a while, but I doubt I will ever get one at this point?

Got this Bill Lee card back in the last week for my 1974 Topps Red Sox team set. Asked for him to sign it Bill "Spaceman" Lee and he did. Happy with how this turned out.



This now makes 7 autos in my team set: Carbo, Tiant, Petrocelli, Tommy Harper, Cecil Cooper, Aparicio and Lee. Sending cards by the end of the year to signings by Cepeda, Yaz and Diego Segui.

Dan- I saw the new documentary/movie "Spaceman" at the Hall of Fame Film Festival a couple of weeks ago. While it is R rated it is very well done. Leaves you shaking your head when it is over. Amazing talent, just never had all the bolts tight.

Great Jackie pieces, Shaun. I have really gotten into his stuff in the last year or so. Picked up this one recently:

[MikeGarcia]

...turned these in at the recent Valley Forge/Fort Washington show as part of the 'free grading for joining' special deal

..what ever happened to PSA's "half-grades" ? All fifteen cards came back with straight solid number grades....what are the odds of that ??


...I was actually expecting two "PSA 9" grades out of the fifteen subs but I guess I missed something somewhere..

Nice cards. If you check PSA pop reports half grades are pretty rare. This is a total guess, but I would put the odds of all 15 cards coming back with no half grades at about 2 to 1, a 50% chance. It wouldn't surprise me though if that percentage was even higher.

Thanks, and very nice pickup as well. Jackie has a lot of great cards.
