New #1 on the registry

I finally sent in my submission of cards that I've been accumulating since June of last year - the 1961 Morrell commons that I picked up one at a time in July and August put me over the top; and that set is now #1!

Just as an example, look at this 1/1 - highest ever graded had been a 6:

This Wills card I picked up raw in June for $24 dollars:
image

I got this Gilliam raw in early January, the highest graded before this was a 6 (of course, in registry language this is a 6, but I'm still proud):
image

I picked up this one raw in June also, soon after the Hollypark show where the one raw example I saw was just too expensive (and rightfully so):
image

And the piece de resistance; the card I've sought for over 20 years, purchased raw, now the highest graded example for my favorite set:

Thanks for looking and letting me share!

    Slide, Kelly, Slide!

    Your running's a disgrace!

    Slide, Kelly, Slide!

    Stay there, hold your base!

    If some one doesn't steal you,

    And your batting doesn't fail you,

    They'll take you to Australia!

    I'm not familiar with the Morrell's but they are really beautiful cards. The Bell's I've always loved. I hope my Bell Rams get decent grades so I don't have to worry about upgrading too many.

    Got a question on the Bells though. Why are they slabbed in such odd holders? Aren't they standard sized?

    I thought bells were each individually sealed due to the way they were packed in with food.
