P.S. Heads-up - I'm auctioning the PSA 9 examples of these two cards right now on ebay. Both look great!

Those are incredible! Is yours the top set? If not, it's got to be approaching it.
I don't even think I own a 10.
Did you go to the National?
thanx for sharing

Mike, no National 4 me this year! My '76 set is the all-time best (2004, 2005 & now 2006). 100% complete, all in 10's and 9's NQ's! But there is someone "nipping at my feet".

Beautiful Morgan card. I was wondering, though, why you decided to sell off all your PSA 9 & PSA 10 OPC cards? I remember when you were aggressively picking them up to "salt them away" so I was wondering what, if anything, changed your mind about the OPCs?

I was going to "salting them away"!
But the more OPCs I bought, the more I realized just how unpopular these Canadian cards are here in the USA! As the low prices for OPCs, do not reflect their scarcity.
As thousands became many thousands of dollars, I just stopped buying them. I had 100s of OPC 1/1s listed in my "eStore" for months, with only moderate results. I also decided to sell some privately, again with moderate results and hopefully will continue sell-off some more on eBay in the near future.
I'm just "set-building" for now, and yes, selling-off OPCs, some amazingly, for more than I paid, as I paid some pretty low prices for many OPCs (...some I DID pay a premium for! Yikes!). Many will be sold-off at a loss or break even pricing, on some others.
It really doesn't matter that much for me, I'll get over it!
