its not a card but picked this up tonight from value village . the board game is from 1969 and only a few small nicks on the side of the box from age and use
More PSA scans from recent sub thats back. The Heltons I've said in the past is for a project I am working on. Although my favorite item didn't hit minimum so it was not slabbed sadly. I'll try again on it had a few spares. Since both my Vintage 61 slabbed gem I'll sell one. The Unleashed reminds me of a Wheaties box rip off. And the fact multiple Fleer Tradition cards gemmed was suprising they are notoriously poorly cut.
The Bagwells are part of another projects the Pedro for resale to Red Sox guys. Sorry about the flipped backs one is Topps the other Fleer. I don't agree with the Finest card ( overgraded in my opinion) I'll upgrade when I see another one that's better centered. The scanner really hurts that Chrome's appearance its actually quite beautiful in person and 98TC are hard to gem if you ever tried before. Same with the Brilliants Pedro its clean as a whistle the scanner picks up everything on all surfaces including its own scan top
I have been the underbidder to the same person on a number of recent auctions from the same seller. Seems fishy, or maybe I am too cheap. 😮 Probably a little of both. Ahh well...

'63's are a robust color experience for collectors with ZERO stock photos used from previous years....Sweet Lou -doesnt get enough pub for how good he was......3,023 hits and a .293 career BA ~ 2 time WS Champ~ 938 Stolen Bases......
In 1974 Lou hit .306 with 194 hits, stole 118 bases (2nd place was Davey Lopes with 59SB's) and finished 2nd in the NL MVP race............behind Steve Garvey.
where is the love ?
Some nice cards posted above and love the Blue on the Brock !!!
Last group of slabs for a bit. I'm good at gemming 99Tek although I occasionally miss stray surface issues
The Guerrero are part of a project = the Pizza and rest are resell fodder. I have a frequent Piazza buyer so I'll continue 90's subs of him. Same with McGwire and Thomas- plenty still to slab from storage and since its been profitable will continue
The Jeters are part of a massive collection of 90's early 00's I've owned for years I'm slabbing / selling for next years induction.
I actually showed his 2002 Bowman Chrome Reprint PSA 9 last week- this one came first in 1998
Emptying the apartment out of these slabs will need to visit storage tomorrow and clean up my place a bit
Always like when I complete scans and can empty the apartment of the keepers while slotting the rest where I can get at them quickly in storage,Love how the room looks once thats done !!!

I’ve always wanted a good Hank Aaron card, and found a great one! The Topps Giants are beauties as well! Thrilled I was able to afford one! Can’t wait to send it off to grading! 😁
Some recent football pickups for a couple of projects. Morris is for my Pats team HOF RC registry. The Frito Lay premiums are from 1981. The Hannah has been on my wish list for years, but I didn't even know what the 81 looked like until it popped up on eBay.

Nice Brock! '63 holds a special place for me as the Bombers Best with Mantle, Tresh and Richardson was my first Mantle pickup. And speaking of '74 the third place MVP vote getter also had quite the year, Mike Marshall pitched 208 innings...as a reliever! His 106 games and 208 innings pitched still stand as a record and will never be touched.

Why do so many people spell "Fort Worth" incorrectly?

As I posted prior slabbing the cards I lugged around for 3000+ miles 12+ years ago to here. Batch 2 came back. A lot of Boggs items from a registry guy ( he requested so I did some of his first) and a bunch of miscellaneous.
Believe buried I have all the different Johnson variations
This ones splitting hairs on the grade is all I'll say
Minor surface issue on the back bottom (2 dots) on the dual Yaz/Bench prevented the 10
Centering on it was as good as I remember
The next Macs I pulled from the travel set I broke.
And this Ryan is why some type on insert needs to get developed
Nice Mattinglys !!Next few slabs were test runs to gauge how PSA grades certain stuff. I like learning what they look for and consider important. The Slurpee has edge issues I knew that going out. Tattoos while clean had some edge / corner issues . No biggie test runs I learned from I have a small amount of Boggs just back so I'll try and post more. They are part of those boxes I lugged cross country I'm going thru now
There are no Ichiro Descending on Beckett Marketplace, eBay, COMC, Amazon or elsewhere I saw as of this morning
With 56 available I don't expect there to be many anyways. Happy with the Near Mint 8 now slabbed
Edges are very rough on these Genuines.
And as someone who has busted plenty of 2002 Certified Mint 9 are fine they are DLP worst production issue of the entire decade.They scan like crap when B&W - not sure why they look great in person.
Am I the only one who worries that the inner “framed” mini card in those Ginter cards will get damaged from rattling around? I never buy them for that reason

I was more worried about it being crooked in the frame so I tried to get it to move and it wouldn't. That may just be this particular card however. It does look like there is a lot of room in there for them to move around.
A few more scanned Boggs. The B-Best had a soft upper left corner and some diamond canting on reverse hurting it.
The Classic Yellow is T-B off on back but thats splitting hairs on that one I've seen 10's like it
The King B is a Pop 2 with just 2 higher so pleased with that one
The Juan Gone is just a re-slab was in an older holder so new lighthouse slab it is
Got errands to run maybe scan more later. Still catching up to scans from some box breaks I did earlier this week.
*** Just noticed the Black mark on the Boggs thats on my scanner- now gone !!
These arrived today. With the addition of the 58 Turley AS card my 1958 All Star sub is complete. The Jensen is an upgrade. The 1970 cards are for my 1970 HOF set.

That is SOME kind of eye appeal right there!
That's a cool game Jeremy.
Have you checked what the mechanism of play is? My guess is a stack of cards and spinners?
Hasbro also made a baseball version in 1969 - NBC Game of the Week - there were cards and spinners for dealing with outcomes/situations - fun game.
Just got the last one (01/10) today. Obviously a big moon fan but these are recent pick ups
