    Your entering

    file:///C:/Kodak%20Pictures/PSA%20CARDS/PSA%2010'S-2.JPG

    You can't do that. You need to put the pictures online somewhere like on photobucket.com then copy the url for the picture which will be something like http://www.photobucket.com/pic.jpg

    Also when you screw up a post you can simply edit the post not create post after post trying to get it right.. just keep editing the orginal post untill you get it.

  • Is Marshall reading the football on that select rookie?

    Great Faulk rookies BTW!
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Looking for Al Hrabosky and any OPC Dave Campbells (the ESPN guy)
  • Great stuff guys!

    Big Red - Those All Americans are sweet. If I collected football this set would be a given. Also I agree with you the 6's have great eye appeal.

    Happy Holidays! Bob C.

    thanks Bob. I'm relatively new to collecting football myself. Had a friend that got me started and I'm hooked. Just what I need, two sports to spend my limited funds on.

    With all due respect Lawnmowerman, that Clayton sig is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Great looking card, but I can't make out a single letter!!!

    Merry Christmas all,
    Shawn.

    Yeah, I love the player but his sig. needs some work. To make matters worse Fleer covered up a good portion of the auto with the card. I bet Knuckes wouldnt have done thatimage

    I know it is not a baseball card, but for the price, why not. These things are selling like hot cakes.

  • Are they really stingray? I still have my original Frogger with the box in my mom's attic. Hours of fun and enjoyment back in the day, but it was noisy. I remember stuffing the game into my pillow to muffle the sound effects and hiding under the covers at night when I should have been sleeping instead of playing Frogger. What are they selling for now?
  • julen23julen23 Posts: 4,558 ✭✭
    Hotcakes you say? This is the hottest item today Stingray!

    JK, this was given to me at a Xmas Party as a gag gift. (notice win 2.0.... sigh)

    Hey, I see two cards!!!!!!

    Nice ones too! Love that Rose. Congrats on figuring this out, sorry I couldn't be more help.

    Shawn.
  • 1966CUDA1966CUDA Posts: 2,001 ✭✭✭✭
    Thanks Shawn...those were a recent submission...also got about 20 PSA 9 Milton Bradleys from the submission. Now that I figured out how to post the photos, it's pretty easy! -Claude
  • KnucklesKnuckles Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭
    Nice Fellar.. If I were to collect baseball that would be the set I would work on. The autograph is a nice bonus.. adds even more appeal to the card.

    I got this in the mail a few hours ago. It's a game used Brian Conacher stick.. Not the greatest player but the autographs on the stick are great. This stick is from the 1966-67 season when the Leafs won the cup. Autos include: Allan Stanley, David Keon (twice), Pete Stemkowski, Frank Mahovolich, Brian Conacher, Ron Ellis, Larry Hillman, Tim Horton, Bobby Baun, Jim Pappin, Red Kelly and Terry Sawchuk

    Sawchuk won the Vezina trophy this year along with teamate Johnny Bower. I wish his autograph was on there as well.

    The latest addition to the set.

    Steve
    Good for you.
  • BigRedMachineBigRedMachine Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭
    Great stuff guys!!

    Claude, you seem to have a good eye for that stuff. When you first said you had a whole submission of Milton Bradleys, I was skeptical, reminded me of this turd I pulled out of a pack a year or so ago

    image

    Yours look MUCH better, congrats!!

    Steve, you're just about done with that set aren't you???? How many cards in that set?? What's the going rate for those cards in the PSA 7 range?? If it weren't for your pictures I wouldn't know they existed.

    Great looking memorabilia Garret. Please don't dice those up for your game used cards. image

    I'm hoping the mailman brings me my next '55 All American cards before Christmas, I'm ready for a couple more. As for my PSA November special, I don't think I'll look again until after the first of the year. I have a bad feeling.

    Merry Christmas guys.

    Shawn.
  • 1966CUDA1966CUDA Posts: 2,001 ✭✭✭✭
    Thanks for the words of encouragement Shawn. I do sell on Ebay and planned on the whole lot to go up on Ebay....but i might keep the 10's and try and complete the set...I have three complete MB sets and only submitted the stars...the commons are in the same condition. Also, the Freehan OPChee is a 1of1 with only four others graded....and the were 8's!!!! I might be putting that one up for auction...if anyone on these boards is interested, just let me know.
  • These were recent subs that came back......

    Merry Xmas me, purchased last week for a VERY nice price.

    The card is pretty well centered and the scratches are on the holder, not the card itself.

  • As far as Carey signed 3x5s go I overpaid big time on this one but I loved the note and the signature is bigger and bolder than his later ones. For the price of an Upper Deck Legendary Cuts card...

    Words to live by, and not just in the game of baseball but in the game of life.
  • Heres what I recieved in yesterdays mail, I took a chance and bought it, it a Full unopened box of 200 packs from 1971 titled Historic Battles.
    I bought the unopened box for $21. nobody bid on it because the seller listed it in the war & military items section instead of the non-sports section. I have opened two packs already, each pack has two stickers mean't to be stuck to a book, however they are on trading cards which is pretty cool. I'll have to post a scan later.

    Heres a description the selkler wrote:
    This is a very rare item for you non-sport collectors. I'm sure most of you have never seen this before. A full unopened box of 200 packs of stickers from around 1971 called "Historic Battles". Each pack has 2 stickers, that means 400 stickers per box, and the full set has 306 stickers. They were made in Antwerp Holland by Cox International. The box comes with a great 40 page 9" X 10 1/2" full color illustrated album made in 5 languages; English, French, German, Italian and Netherlands.
    Only a few cases of those boxes were exported to Canada in the early 70's, and I believe, none in the United States. Each two pages of the book depicts a famous historic battle. All you have to do is stick the corresponding sticker in its spot. As you see each sticker has a different pattern. 18 big World battles are described in 5 languages in these pages (excellent description). I'm not going to name them all, but here's a few: Saratoga, Waterloo, Port Arthur, The Marne, Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Stalingrad, Normandie, ending with the 6 day war of Israel in 1967. I'm showing you a photo of what the box and packets look like, also a scan of the cover and a few pages of the book

    I think the seller has a few boxes, if anyone is interested in buying an unopened box from 1971, I took a chance and these are pretty cool sticker trading cards, the seller has listed another unopened box on ebay. 1st come 1st serve will get it item# 6237946407 Good luck!!!

    Merry Christmas and Happy New year,
    enjoy.

    This isn't mine but a guy reported getting a few packs of cards for Christmas and he pulled this cut sig!!!

    Do you believe this! A guy who doesn't collect Heritage - didn't buy a boatload - pulls this card!!

    What a great present!

    I'm just full of Heritage envy today!!

  • Nice Nixon sig, but when are these card companies going to learn how to properly crop a sig?
  • julen23julen23 Posts: 4,558 ✭✭
    Pulled the trigger on this beauty tonite. Ironically, the regular version is scarcer in PSA 9 than White Letter Variation is. However the White Letter version would probably fetch about 8 or 9x what I paid for the regular version. The McCovey shown below is 1/3 w/ no psa 10's currently.
