Finally...and worth the wait

paleocards

My October '70s Special finally posted yesterday. I aim for 7's or better so I'm pretty pleased (very pleasantly surprised on the '70 Kaline). I bought the '71 Ryan locally, will be interested to see the shop-owner's reaction...Will post some scans after I receive the slabs. Happy Thanksgiving!

Nice grades. That 71 Bradshaw is a tough card too.

Just a few notes: the CP Globetrotters 9s are the first graded this high, and the only PSA graded set is at a GPA of about 6.8, this will be the #1 set in a few days! In fact there were only 13 8s graded before this, there are 19 in this submission alone!

A few of the hockey are for my sets, the rest will be available soon, including the 2nd 1971 McCallum in PSA 9, these are the 1st 2 graded higher than 8.

I thought that the 1970 Orr would be a 6, very happy with the 7 as I paid $30 raw. The 1971 Orr was a PSA 5 until mid Oct. now it's a 6.

Overall I'm very happy with the grades although it was a long wait made worse by the fact that the November Specials were being done before the Oct. Specials.
