Wax box opened 1985 Fleer. PSA worthy?

JohnsFamily

I opened a 1985 Fleer wax box last week and for the most part was pleased. There were quite a few off center top to bottom, but none of the key cards were off center. I got a Ryan, Rose, Clemens, (2) Mattingly, (2) Schmidt, Ripken. I am thinking of sending the Clemens for grading. Here is a scan. On the back of the card there are what appear to be some print spots in the red area. Is it worth sending to PSA?

Definitely, a 9 would bring $100-$130

I would send it in. Looks like an 8, maybe a 9 to me. Is there a light grey patch area on the top border just to the right of the Boston logo?

First off...

Welcome!!!

What else do you collect?

I think the card looks great! Won't say for sure on the grade but it looks like a 9.

Good luck on the sub.

Yes there is a light grey area on the upper left border. I do notice it more now that I look at it. Darn, that may drop it to an 8. Thanks for the input.

I collect mostly baseball and football cards from the late 60's and early 70's. I got an urge to open some wax, and the 1980's and newer is in my price range. I started collecting in 1968 when I was eight years old until the mid- 70's. In the mid-80's I sold most of my collection and had enough for a down payment on my first house. Thanks mom for not throwing away my cards! I got back into collecting in the late 80's and more in the last few years because of PSA graded. Favorite player is Lou Brock.

I would send it in - it is one of the few 80's cards that is still desirable even as a PSA 8. Looks like at least that from the scan.

Congrats, that is an awesome Rajah! I say send it in and hope for a 9.

No doubt about sending it in.It should bring you an 8 which wouldnt be bad at all.
