Almost 50% 9's. I think WOW! would be an understatement. Very nice job. I am not familiar with 68's. How many of the cards are lower pops?

I think you need to sell/trade me some of these that I need for my set.

WOW dude!!! Great eye. Very nice job!

ejguru

Dude----I know the '68 set. Those are some AWESOME grades!

artimus

good job!

Stump

Dan

Great job on the grades. I am assuming those ones are yours

Dave

There might be one easy card in that whole lot! The Monday and Maye are tough in almost any grade. Any for sale?

fiveniner

Great!!!

Dude,

If those are your cards - then I think that I'd be a little disappointed. Not to say that 19 - 8's and 15 - 9's aren't nice, but I know how picky you are about centering and corners. I would have expected more 9's than 8's and a few 10's thrown in as well.

Just my 2 cents...

Frank

dude

Thanks for the nice comments guys - and yes, they are my cards. I actually needed 4 for my set. I think I currently have 44 - 8s in my '68 registry set and with this submission I'm now down to 40.

Most will be for sale on eBay - I'm not sure when - I haven't got them yet and there may be hurricane coming my way, so I'm in a wait and see mode right now.

Good job PSA!

FB

Dude,

I just got an unsigned email from some "thought policeman" slapping my wrist for taking a "backhanded slap" at your submission and talked about my POS 72 set as well. Some guys are too thinned skinned for their own good.

Dan - if you're happy - then I'm happy. Frank

alnavman

DUDE!!!!! nothing else needs to be said

gemint

Great job Dan. And you didn't have over 50% of the submission come back with evidence of trimming!

srs1a

Nice ones -- particularly 128, 143 and Mr. Staub -- all toughies in my book!

Edited to add: ditto on Billy Williams.

The Dude Did Good!

Wow Dan nice job. I am waiting on a submission I sent in from the National.

Dude: Were these picked up raw on eBay or in person?
