I will buy that one aswell and for less. I have searched ebay and never could find one. I should have searched using more years I guess. According to guides it is 1982. I will submit the bes to PSA. Thanks !!!

Thanks for the link I won the auction and am making a deal to buy another handful of complete sets. I have loooked for so long I cant believe I missed the auction myself. I would have paid far more for the card ( stamp) Next Question will PSA grade these?

James:

It is always a crapshoot as to what PSA grades and what they do not. I think all player collectors know that to some extent. I would say that PSA definitely grades the 1982 and 1983 Fleer Stamps - and PSA recently graded for me two 1989 Grenada MLB stamps of Mike Schmidt. So-----they might.

According to PSA, and it's printed right on the submission form, they will grade most cards that are cataloged in major sportscard publications, including SMR, Krause SCD & Beckett. I think as long as it has a price listed for it in the guide, which means it was authorized, and they have a slab that will holder it, they'll grade it, so you should be in good shape.

I would not be so confident. Ask JEB or others about problems along these lines. PSA has three times rejected my Chef Boyardee cards - and my Perma-Graphics cards twice. However, other Mike Schmidt collectors have gotten those cards graded. They sometimes grade the 1984 Ralston Purina cards - sometimes they do not. With many of the obscure issues - it literally is a hit-or-miss type phenomenon.

Thanks for the help. Recently I had my Purina rejected "dont grade". I will send it in under the special and see what happens. It is a very obscure regional issue you had to mail in to get it. I went from 0 stamps and I should own 5 this week. I think my idea of an * in the pops of what they no longer grade would help.
