Those are some really awesome cards and a great score. Thank you for sharing! The Mantles--my only real area of expertise--are in beautiful shape and, alone, could potentially get you back what you have into the lot.

Yea, when I got to the Yankees section I could hardly breathe!

I've got him all ready to go to PSA...I've only done BGS grading before, so I'm not entirely sure what to expect, but I'm cautiously optimistic...any predictions?

The 62 regular issue looks like a ExMt+, maybe NM. I'll go 6.5

Both 62 all stars look like 8s. Centering a little off on both so I'll go 7s.

63 looks like a 6 to me, although can't see bottom right corner.

Good luck!

Geez, I was hoping this site catered to an audience mature enough that may make it Troll free. Oh well, if they show up, I'll ignore them, just like I do the Trolls on other sites.

I bet this story is made up. There is no way someone you just found that 90s wax like that at an estate sale . All kidding aside, it's an awesome find. I love hearing stories like this and it makes me want to keep searching this stuff out.

As for the grades on your Mantles, I have no idea. I collect low grade and have only submitted twice for some really obscure issues. If I had these, I'd definitely wait for a monthly special and send the better cards/players off for grading though as I think you'd get much better returns with these in holders.

I know right? I went back day 3 & actually got 12 boxes of '92 upper deck for $20 (no Williams Auto though), must be in a fantasy world right?

RE: Grading, as luck would have it, I had paid the $199 to join PSA about 6 weeks ago. I had planned on a MUCH lower value use of my 15 freebies, but now 13 of these cards are going in the mail tomorrow with 2 of the ones I had planned originally still making the cut
