Links are generally ok to post.....BTW, when the grades get above 8, it seems very subjective.

Hi Leon,

Thanks for the insight, and also thanks for this message board!

Here is the link to the PSA 10... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1968-Topps-2...MAAOSwMHdXRIYt

I'm glad that if I never get to own a PSA 10 Bench rookie, that I have one I like. I still need to get it graded one of these days.

Best always,
John

Hi All,

I decided to post some new pictures of my Johnny Bench rookie card (outside of the case) as well as my 1970 Bench. In the near future I hope to take some pictures of other Bench items I own.

Best,
John

Hi All,

I have a card grading question. In a couple weeks there will be a card show near me where PSA will be there grading cards. As such I am planning on likely bringing my Johnny Bench rookie card with me to be graded. Might anyone hear have insight on the turnaround time for that, as well as the potential costs involved? Any and all insight is much appreciated.

Best,
John

There is a ton of info, and likely everything you need to know, right in the PSA site. http://www.psacard.com/

If PSA is grading on site, then it should be a few hours at most, depending how many in front of you there are?

Prices also vary, depending on the value of the card. I believe, (likely in the link?) anything that has a value of $10,000 or over will cost you $700.00 dollars per card. It goes down from there to I believe $200 or $250 if the card is valued below that to $5000.00.

Good luck.

Hi all,

I thought I'd let you know that my Bench rookie, which is pictured on post 37, came back from PSA. It was graded at a 7. Overall, a decent grade. To me the best part of the card is remembering getting it many years ago.

Best,
John
