The last Mays, the third Seaver looks like a 10 chance with that centering. Chris, this box sure looks well centered according to the star players. I have not seen the 90/10 examples on any of these cards. Very nice results.
Looking for high grade rookie cards and unopened boxes/cases

I normally would agree but in the "SGC order" thread here is seem at least they are dinging 1973 cards for back chipping, reducing what used to be 8's and 9's down to 3's

Baz, thanks for the reply. Some of that I knew, other info I did not.
Chris, I hear you on not trying to guess the grades anymore. It all depends on the grader you get.
Love the vending
Always loved that Seaver card. Those colors POP!
Keep ‘em coming, Chris! Just beautiful…
Love it! Seaver #3 looks like a real winner ...

Last pic I took of the 73's
Top of the Pops on that one?
Awesome awesome. This is so much fun. Thanks for continuing to share these.
What a shame for back chipping to devalue such pretty cards by that many grades.
Successful card BST transactions with cbcnow, brogurt, gstarling, Bravesfan 007, and rajah 424.
Thanks much - appreciate your props.
Those 73's are so beautiful to look at. The Mays cards with those absolute razor sharp edges and corners is a sight to see!
Thanks for sharing as always!
Recently participated in a Facebook Group break of 15 - 1989 Fleer FASC boxes.
I purchased 120 pack slots. 8 packs per box.
I landed some nice FF's and one Randy with the Marlboro showing.
That was a massive break. Quite the undertaking to collect all those different date codes.
I have a 83641. is that old enough for one of the Marlboro variations?
Ad visible stopped around 83401. Some of the ad green/red tint surface through 83651, but most are black out version. Ripken FF runs through 90091.
I think this website for the Ripken error shows it runs through 90171 - https://www.postwarcards.com/pulling-the-bill-ripken-ff-error-from-1989-fleer-wax-boxes/
