Nice. The '68-'69 TOPPS series is notorious for bad centering. That said, the PSA O/C qualifier bug me to no end. Not just on this particular series either, it's obvious to the eye and that "scarlet letter" PSA attaches diminishes an otherwise very sharp card and it's value unnecessarily. Just sayin'. The Mahovlich card is NOT that bad, and I've seen worse cards evade that PSA qualifier. Okay, my rant is over. Thanks for sharing them. First hockey set I started collecting back in days of egg creams and 2cent pretzels.

You can ask for no qualifiers; I didn't. I've seen worse 7's than the Mahovlich but the really irksome thing is that the Mahovlich is a better card than the Hall but would grade a straight 6 if the qualifier was removed. To me, really, both are near mint cards. The Cheevers for that matter should be a 9 oc. I'd rather that than a 6.
Which is why I usually just buy slabbed hockey rather than self-submitting; better control over what I get.

About 18 months ago I submitted three OPC Tony Esposito RC's. Got a 9, 7 o/c, and a 6. All cards I had since I was a kid. The o/c was barely, and all three looked sharp. Comparing your Mahovlich to the Cheevers, they missed the boat as to what one was o/c. Nice cards anyway... |
