To be graded or not to be graded that is the question
I have never had a card graded in my life and can barely tell the difference between a 7 and a 9.
So , i would like to know if my 1972 star cards should be graded or kept raw. What would this Pete grade, if below an 8 i will keep them raw. Thanks

Looks around a 7 or an 8 to me, but you really need a large blown up scan to see the differences in hi-grade cards.

Bigger scans...
Thanks Owen. Here is a scan of a few of the cards.... it doesn't appear they show up any better this way though.

Bottom edge looks a little rough cut, I think they downgrade for that. Top left corner looks a little worn too. Should make an easy 7, possibly 7.5 or 8 if you're lucky.
~Owen EDIT: The Ted W, looks nice, but I think I see some ink (possibly a print defect) around the top.

The Carew and Bench are both too off-center to come back with a straight nine. The Rose top right corner looks dinged, probably keeping it as a 7 or 7.5 . The Williams is really nice. I think that's the best of the four.
