Really nice- congrats! Would love to see who else was in the collection.

Sent 3 more to PSA. Based on how much they charge, I'm being selective and paying for Express hence the amazingly quick turnaround! The DiMaggio was postmarked the same month that his 56 Game hitting streak ended in 1941! They got these 3 on 10/12 and shipped them back today!

Wow!
Cert # Item Primary Subject Result/Grade
1 84262167 Government Postcard Joe DiMaggio MINT 9
2 84262168 Government Postcard Connie Mack MINT 9
3 84262169 Government Postcard Mel Ott MINT+ 9.5

The Ott was also signed by Hubbell!

Peace, Mike

Thank you, it is so smooth! Signed during late July 1941 in the middle of his second hitting streak that summer! Would have been cool if it had been during the 56 game streak but pretty close! His writing style shows how relaxed he was.

Thanks!

Peace, Mike

The Foxx is interesting. he did vary a bunch and some that I think are OK have failed PSA. Not sure on that one. others superb, congrats

Sending to PSA. What a waste of money.
(And if you want the best in archival preservation for those GPCs, you won't leave them in those cases. It's what the BBHOF does when they receive slabbed cards as gifts--bust 'em out of the cases.)
