Grades popped

Posts: 936 ✭✭✭✭✭
My graded just popped today for the June Special. Overall I was happy with the results although I was hoping that my 1973 Johnny Bench candy lid would graded higher than a 5. I was pleased with the number of 8's on my 1971 Topps.
One item of note is the three 1981 Squirt cards (Rose, Schmidt, and Bench) that all graded 9. I had these cards hand cut and did not separte them at the perforations. I have seen posts on this site before stating that PSA would not grade these unless these cards were separated and not if they were hand cut. I did do a pretty good job, however, of cutting these extremely close to the perforations.
Also, today I just submitted my 1968 Partridge Meats Johnny Bench for grading in light of the new card sizes that PSA will now grade under the super size submission variety. I know $50 is quite a bit but I like the idea of having the first card graded from this set and the fact that it is a Bench rookie. I am hoping for an 8.

I believe they downgrade for the bend at the tab. The very few which are graded higher than 5's were most likely never actually used on the candy tubs. Otherwise, great grades.

<< <i>Great job on the 71s. No matter how strong the '71 sets I've bought have been, I never get that high a % of 8s on them. You must have rigerously screened them. >>
Thanks. This is the second large submission I have sent for my 1971 set. I try to go through them very thoroughly. I received three PSA 9 1971's on my last order.
As far as the 1973 Candy lids are concerned, I didn't know what to expect from PSA as far as grading standards for the tab portion of the candy lid. I guess I just assumed that would take into consideration that all of the tabs would be bent since that was the way they inserted on the candy tubs. Oh well.

<< <i>What date were these submitted? >>
PSA lists a received date of 7/10/06 for this order (June special). I was pleasantly suprised that they completed my order as quickly as they did.
