I only have 2 cards in my collection in which I bought raw in the early 1990s and then submitted years later to PSA. A 1965 Steve Carlton RC ($660) was displayed by Mr Mint, Al Rosen, at the National in Chicago for his upcoming Fall Auction...and I won it. The other raw card is a 1962 Lou Brock RC ($125) at the National in Atlanta.

I would like to see your 1962 Sandy Koufax PSA-9...what a Grand Slam!
Submitted about (40)1977 O-Pee-Chees and one common got a 10. Sad but true!
1954 Red Heart Hank Sauer PSA 9
I sold it a while back. It was a beautiful! I just realized I forgot to type STAMP. It was a stamp, not the regular issue.
Oldest cards I've subbed myself were from 1909. These were the highest:
The oldest card I self subbed that graded higher than that was this, a raw gift from a CU member:
And the oldest self-sub that graded higher than that was this, purchased raw on the CU BST:
Oldest self sub higher than that:
And my oldest self-subbed PSA 10:

forgot about a 1959 roger maris psa 9 oc, but the centering looks like a psa 8. super nice.
I got an SGC 92 on a 1970 tall boy Lew Alcindor. I thought it was under graded.
Here are a few highlights of cards I subbed myself
I know, I know. Still, a striking card. Subbed this one many years ago.

Wanted a perfectly centered 2nd year Killebrew. Thought this would be a 9. One of my first submissions, along with a 1962 Twins Team that looks like a 10 to me!
Great cards all - thanks for sharing. If only this was in the B/S/T thread!!
Might inspire me to make a first ever submission.
Here are a few of my Hostess panels that I cut and submitted.
got these raw at an antique store many years ago for $1 each and had them graded quite a few years back as well. Not worth a ton I don't suppose, but cool to get 10s on cards so old
This is a self subbed card. Thought it was an 8/9 when I sent it…
Curious about the rare, mysterious and beautiful 1951 Wheaties Premium Photos?

Nice to stumble upon a card that graded PSA 10 from my childhood collection....
Live long, and prosper.
I have got quite a few PSA 10's from the 1966 Marvel set but I did open several boxes.
Did you open them in 1966?
Live long, and prosper.
