yds,

Sharp Walt card! You must have done well unloading your vintage basketball to have that kind of wantlist now!

Keep sharing the scores...

YD, Welcome back! Man...ya just missed the 70 topps Hondo in PSA 9 last night...DBryant picked it up for a mere $3850....would have looked great next to the Frazier 9! Now that he has his...maybe you can get the next one for about $1k next time. Good luck with all of em'!!

Thanks! I saw that! Gotta love D. Bryant... he's paid my rent a few times with his buy it nows... and he's an unstoppable collector...
as for that $3000+ PSA 9 Havlicek... I think a mere $28 was good for this one with 4 sharp corners and a clean surface:

Did that grade a 9? See its in a slab, nice card never the less.

I always thought it was strange that the pictures on the basketball cards of that era (and I was buying the packs at that time) have the players wearing their jersey backwards so their name (or no name if the case) is on the front of the jersey without the team name.

You would have thought there were no licensing issues, but who knows?

The issue was liscencing. It was the same problem with football cards of the 1970's. Take a look, there are no helmet emblems. It's not nearly as noticable because football teams don't put the team name on the uniform.
