Bench registry changes

BJ informs us that Joe O. approved the weights proposed by a consensus of registry leaders. Some went up, some went down, most stayed about the same. I was a little sad to see '68 Kahn's and '74 Deckle lose points, but I agree that a set should only have one 10, and '68 Venezuelan deserves it more than those two. I'm glad '68 Topps came down some, though perhaps not quite enough. With 110 PSA 9's out there and don't even ask how many 8's, it ain't exactly the toughest rookie in the world.
Four new cards were added: '69 MLB PhotoStamp, '71 Bazooka complete panel (blame me for that one), '78 Hostess, and '83 Fleer Sticker. More are coming eventually, mostly OPC's and stickers that nobody's bothered grading yet. Plus whatever surprises Scott and Ryan, etc., have up their sleeves.
Wait til I get my 1975 Budweiser Johnny Bench beer coaster graded! Oh baby.
Thanks to Lee, Scott, Ryan, and Steve whose participation in the survey resulted in the new weights, which are much fairer than the old set, even if I don't agree with a few of 'em. And to BJ, Cosetta, Gayle & Co. for wedging us into the queue with the zillion other registry requests.
