    LOL, yeah sorry about the size. I had to scan it at 600dpi to get the full effect of the spots. That is actually an excellent way to pre-grade your cards.

    Jason:

    As I replied to you on IM -- I think that this card would have a tough time getting a PSA 9. I think that PSA would probably just straight out 8 it rather than give it a PD -- but I'm not sure. The print on the bottom left is distracting -- it is noticeable without magnification, and it happens to be in the widest strip of white on the card. Though I encourage you to break out and try -- there isn't a big enough upside $$$ potential in a crossover to PSA 9, IMHO. It is a nice card -- and the borders and corners do look very nice. Too bad about the print, though.

    By the way -- I am hoping that the scan is a little warped -- otherwise, it seems as if the left edge bends in a little bit starting at Schmidt's helmet. Does anyone else see what I am talking about? Probably just a scanning issue, though...

    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    Please don't ever force me to look at Mike Schmidt's nose hair ever again.
