Grades finally popped!!

With the exception of a few cards, they were better than expected.

40648942 1960 TOPPS 139 CARL MATHIAS ROOKIE STAR 5 - Must've missed a light wrinkle somewhere- thought this was a solid 7
2 40648943 1960 TOPPS 171 JOHNNY GROTH N/A 8 - Picked this one up about 12 yrs ago- figured it had a shot at an 8
3 40648944 1960 TOPPS 178 WOODY HELD N/A 8 - picked up off Ebay for less than $3 dlvd. PSA7 /shot at the 8
4 40648945 1960 TOPPS 180 HARRY SIMPSON N/A Not Holdered, Evidence of Trimming - Don't remember where I picked this one up
5 40648946 1960 TOPPS 184 GARY GEIGER N/A 6 - Ebay/ Thought it was a solid 7, chance at 8
6 40648947 1960 TOPPS 202 FRED KIPP N/A 8 - Picked this one up off a dealer about 15 yrs ago for a $1.50, thought it had the best chance for a 9.
7 40648948 1960 TOPPS 229 JOE MORGAN N/A 8 - From Ebay, quite a few yrs ago The 8 was a surprise
8 40648949 1960 TOPPS 238 DANNY KRAVITZ N/A 9 - Another surprise. Off Ebay within the last year
9 40648950 1960 TOPPS 359 BUDDY GILBERT N/A 7 - Ebay/ grade was as expected
10 40648951 1960 TOPPS 443 CHARLIE MAXWELL N/A 9 - Ebay/ thought it was an 8, suprised at the 9
11 40648952 1960 TOPPS 132 FRANK HOWARD ROOKIE STAR 8 - bought this from the Polo Grounds at a show years ago as NM
12 40648953 1960 TOPPS 490 FRANK ROBINSON N/A 7 -also bought from Polo Grounds about 20 years ago as NM

So overall, I missed something on 2 cards (especially the Mathias) and didn't see anything on the Simpson, but I'd love to see what I missed there. The grades on the remainder of the sub were as expected or exceeded expectations. It was worth the wait.

    They just popped in the last 5 or 6 hours. I'll get the scans up when they arrive. I'm going to zoom in on the edges of the Simpson card and post the scans also, just to see if anyone can point out where the trimming may have taken place.

    I just looked at the pop report and the Kravitz is a 1 of 5 at PSA 9 with no 10s, so I'm pretty happy with the grades overall. Of course I'm most interested in looking real hard at the 3 problem cards to see what I missed.
