Well, my good man, it’s not on the master set because no one has attempted to add it. For that matter, I didn’t know that a fullly intact panel still existed. But now that I’ve seen one, I’ll have to add it to my list.

Along those lines, let me know if you ever decide to part with this one.

The Mantle/bauer panel is also not in the mantle master set
And that one has been graded

In that case, someone who is collecting the set has to request it to be added to the master set. I think the rule is that you are required to have a minimum of 5% of the set completed before you can ask to have a piece added. And you can only request to add pieces that are in your inventory.

It could also be a case where someone just doesn’t want to make the list any longer, because there’s already plenty on the list as it is. Or it could just be that whoever owns it doesn’t give a flying leap about the set registry.

Have a weird story related to adding items to the set registry.

I'm putting together the PSA Mays Master Set and I picked up a 1968 Topps (Milton Bradley) PSA 1 from a recent Goldin auction. I made the request to add this variation to the Mays Master Set after adding the card to my inventory and PSA responded by deactivating the cert #??? I've already sent a question to PSA asking what's going on here, any insight on this?

Charlie - if memory serves, on the transogram boxes, you're looking for the assembled boxes, and not the flat, graded ones? Obviously I have a lot of the flat, graded ones, on eBay, albeit at museum prices.

I could be crazy here, but...

Does such a thing exist?

I wonder if whoever slabbed it just mislabeled it. Maybe it was just a plain jane 1968 topps, and they accidentally slabbed it as Milton Bradley?

So when you petitioned to have it added to the registry, they realized their error, and their brilliant solution was not to communicate, but instead to surreptitiously shut that cert down.

Looking at the listing, here: https://goldin.co/item/1968-topps-mi...JkSW5kZXgiOjN9

It does look like a plain old 1968 Topps. The back is orange, not yellow. And there's no white stripe on the front edge.

Well that's the one I bought. I picked it up only because it was the Milton Bradley variation and the pop count was pretty low at the time. Of course I don't see the Willie on the pop report now so maybe they deactivated all the certs? Side by side with my regular 1968 Willie I could not tell the difference but I trusted in PSA. Oh well, slightly annoying to be sure but it wasn't a high dollar card.

Mays 100% doesn't exist in the MB set. Sounds like PSA to not communicate and just wipe the cert rather than admit they don't know what they are doing
