What do you think?? Gradable?

1970 Topps Basketball Posters: Inserted in series 2, folded a dozen times and of course gum was included. I have two sets of these. One set has gum stains on reverse and the other set is clean. PSA does grade these posters (30 total pop, 1 Chamberlain in PSA 6). I'm pretty sure it'll be $50 to get graded (jumbo + $20). I have the 1969 Rulers of Chamberlain and Alcindor graded and thought this might be cool for the pc.... What do you guys think? Anybody ever grade any posters? Thanks.............

    I think it’s worth it. The oversized items look great slabbed...

    I graded an Alcindor and it came back a PSA 6. I was surprised as I expected it to grade lower because of the folds. I think it is a real crapshoot as far a getting a higher grade versus a lower one. I would send it in. It will look great slabbed.

    Nice poster. I think that is Don Nelson behind Lew.

    It sure looks like Don Nelson. I wonder who the guy that is about 1/2 way off the page is?

    That looks like maybe Don Chaney?

    The Bob Rule poster has Russell in the shot.

    Thanks. What kind of holder did you use to submit? I don't really want to use those flimsy ultra pros.

  • These look really nice. So awesome that the grade is secondary to these legends.
