Perfect way to get a card that is clean with good colors. Pin hole would kill the technical grade but i am fine with card like that. Buy the card not the flip.

Yes James, I agree. And there are still quite a few cards like this out there, that are clean, good color, not perfect, but a solid collectible card that you can afford and have fun building the collection.

I agree with this completely. I am taking my time and being myself (cheap) and still looking for nice HOF examples of each year, with great eye appeal and low technical grades. The search is a lot of the fun.

This is from my last collection.. I don't own it any longer but an example like this would be great.

Absolutely Leon……it definitely isn’t worth it unless it’s fun. Today , I got this GR PR Joe Connolly card from Tonyetrade. Like the Maranville, nice color and a very acceptable card, with just enough molasses stain to make it amazing. If this is a graded “Poor” card, I’ll collect them all day long……..getting closer to that Braves set!
