    Never know unless you try. Looks like a candidate to me.

    Good luck.

    It seems to me, that MOST of the cards that get the .5 up are usually centered very well. That being, the case, and this T-B centering, I wouldn't guess that it would, but you never know?

    SPeaking of that, How much does it cost to submit a card for a .5 review? And will it get a new slab regardless? I have a few I will be submitting soon as well.

    The centering will hold it back, darn sweet card though.

    Maybe the centering isnt so bad after all...

    I do not think it would get the bump. Sweet card though!

    I'm not a member of CU, so I would have to go on one of PSA's Public Fridays. The next one is August 8. So no $$$ on the S/H to PSA. This card would have to be submitted under the Express Service since declared value would be between $500.00 and $1,999.00. Express service is 5 business days and costs $35.00. But I have a $25.00 voucher. The return S/H via Registered Mail, with a Declared Value of between $501.00 and $1,000.00, would be $19.50. So total cost, not including time, gas, etc., would be $29.50. But if I can convince them to let me pick it up in person, then total cost would be just $10.00.

    If the card gets the bump, then definitely worth. If not, at least it will still come back in a minimum PSA 7. I would just "throw" it on ebay then as I'm not looking to keep the card. Thanks guys.

    Nothing wrong with the T/B centering. 1954 cards are like that.

    7's usually go for at least a grand. Sometimes more. It is after all his rookie card.

    Dear hofautos,

    Do you have an ebay item number for the Banks PSA 7.5 (assuming it was sold on ebay) or a link to where the card was sold? Do you know what the final bid price was? Thanks.

    Few months ago I sold a 7 and I think I got 1,200.00 for it.

    The 7.5 in the auction should go for 1500.00 IMO.

    Maybe more?

    If I was you I'd give it a shot. At most it costs 35.00

    Steve,

    You must be psychic. The 1954 Topps Ernie Banks PSA 7.5 went for $1,581.00. Let me guess, you regularly came within $100.00 on the Price Is Right and, thus, won both Showcases.
