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.

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.
