i actually like the rough cut on earlier topps cards as well for all the aforementioned reasons.

even though we are hovering around the 25/75% on the left/right, i have to agree that there is way more ground for this card to cover (and no that's not my consignment at pwcc) ; )

from the natural hrs, to the way he handled himself during the chase, to being 1st colored hr leader, to handling the mental aspect of death threats, to being a civil rights hero, i think this card is completely undervalued and honestly surprised it hasn't knocked on the door of a six figure number yet in an 8.

i do not think we are too far off though. maybe 2 years'ish....maybe a lot sooner. it's basically doubled in price just in the last 5 months.

the pwcc 8 will be a fun one to watch, though

and i choose left. centering between the 2 isn't that far off and i like the deeper, orange color. the registration around "henry aaron" is crisper as well.

i also noticed that someone snagged up all 3 of those decent centered 5's this past weekend...smart move!

this pwcc will turn heads and break sale records for the grade and subsequently drag everything else up with it.

man where were you when I was trying to sell my centered psa 6 aaron a month ago....

Cant understand why the 1955 Clemente should sell for more than the 1954 Aaron

Without holding both cards in hand it hard to discern if the differences in color are real or just a result of the scanner settings. It's so close, though, that it would be tough to make a choice based on scans alone.

Good point Chuck.

It looks like I'm in the minority, but I just think the one on the left looks better. The image is nice, and I prefer the color in the background. Can't go wrong either way though, both great cards.

I agree - I like the deeper orange color much better and the rough cut bothers me a lot less on the one on the left!

Check the pop report, possibly fewer Clementes in each grade, plus he is extremely popular more so than Aaron.

I'd take the one on the right first all day.

a lil over 3 hours to go on that pwcc psa 8 and already sitting at $31.6



already looks like a record breaking sale, but stumped on whether she has peaked or shattering the glass roof!?!?

any closing estimates?

Same high bidder on the Clemente at 40K.

[begsu1013]

ugh! i was hoping for a legit sale...that clemente is crazy nice as well!

edit: with only a 26 rating as well.
