I'm getting ready to send in my first submission and wanted to see what you guys thought my cards would grade. I know they aren't much but I like these cards a lot. Don't spare my feelings. I can take it. I'm fairly new to card grading so I'm not sure what to expect. My thoughts are:
'54 Doby PSA 6
image
'54 Furillo PSA 6, shot at a 7
image
'54 Reese PSA 5, shot at a 6
image
'53 Campanella PSA 4, maybe 4.5?
image
'49 Roe PSA 5, maybe 5.5?
image
What do you guys think?

    I actually think you're undergrading them by a full grade, assuming there are no creases. Bigger scans would help a little though. Nice cards.

    Those '54 Bowmans are sweet!

    Thanks for the compliments guys! I hope you guys are right. Hopefully PSA doesn't read this, but I really don't care what they get. image I just want them protected. And the '54s will look nice in my set.

    Good stuff man! Good luck on your first sub!

    I just sent these cards in for grading. I'm not really nervous about the grades themselves but I was a little apprehensive sending my cards out in the mail. I hope the graders are as kind as everyone here has been. image I will keep everyone posted.

    So does PSA image
  • CDsNutsCDsNuts Posts: 10,092 ✭
    With the larger scans, I can see why you graded them like you did. I think you're right on, give or take a half grade.

    Campy's getting a 3.5
  • bluemarlinbluemarlin Posts: 627 ✭✭✭
    Those are some great looking cards! I think you will make out well on those.

    In all the time I have been reading this board, you may be the first person that has actually undergraded their cards.
  • cwazzycwazzy Posts: 3,257 ✭


    << <i>Campy's getting a 3.5 >>



    The Campy is my all time favorite card. It was the very first vintage card that I ever acquired. I really don't care if it gets a -3.

    I hope you are right! I don't think the Doby will get more than a 6. The upper right corner is a bit too touched to pull the 8 I think. It doesn't show on the front but is fairly noticeable on the back. It does have a shot at a 7 though. The Reese is the one that I am worried about. I'm hoping that it doesn't come back trimmed. It measure perfectly but there is just something about the top edge that just doesn't sit right with me. I would love an 8 on that one though! The Furillo is actually the nicest card of the '54s in my opinion.

    My grades are finally in. I actually guessed all of them correctly except for the Doby which was actually a point higher than I expected! I'm pretty happy for my first submission.

    Before seeing your grades posted i thought 7-6-6-4-5. Nice job.
  • cwazzycwazzy Posts: 3,257 ✭
    Thanks, Carew! The sad thing is that the Doby and Furillo are too good for my '54 set! They will make the rest of it pale in comparison! image
