Pretty good 1962 Topps Poppage today - Scans Added!

Pretty good pop today. I paid about $1.50 a card for these (except the Clemente's, Musial & Aaron towards the middle), so I was already ahead of the game.

In pregrading them I thought I'd get 41 8's or better and I missed that mark. The Mazeroski cards should have been 8's and 8's yield a pretty penny, so I'll try them again. I've never received a 7 or above on Foytack & Witt and really thought they would make it. Still got some tough/low pop 8's, the highest ever graded on one card and was very happy to get 9's. Very pleased with no rejects and fast turnaround time by PSA. Missed some wax for the second time in a row. Either I'm slipping or PSA has some new lights.

    Very nice eye Mike. image

    None of those were mine, were they? image

    Some of yours went in on previous subs Nick - these all came from one wonderful ebay lot (except the crackouts, Musial, and Marichal).

    Your stuff is always great though. Am down to about 80 cards for my #1 set - I may send you a pm to see if you can help me.

  • Bosox1976Bosox1976 Posts: 8,550 ✭✭✭✭✭
    J: Seems to me like you used to be able to get an 8 with one speck of white showing on one corner - now it seems that any white = 7.

    Nice job. Consistancy has never been PSA's strong point when grading this set.

    Cards arrived today - not bad for a Friday night poppage.

    Here are some scans of the HOF cards and toughies....


    Two Clemente's..... both were PSA 6 crack outs:

    Two nice, cheap ebay pickups that worked out:

    image


    Gotta love these for $1.50 each (all the rest were part of a nice raw lot I got on ebay)......

    image



    The 8.5 is the HIGHEST EVER GRADED example, and Sullivan is 1 of only 26 with only 1 higher:

    image



    The Lemay is 1 of 6 (none higher) and Scheffing is 1 of 6 with none higher also:

    image


    Tuttle is 1 of 23 (none higher) and Morhardt is 1 of 34 (3 higher):

    These will be cracked and resubmitted -- how are they possibly 7's ? (anybody got a VCP on 8's -- thanks!):

  • Let's see the Musial plays 21st season is an 8 and Mazeroskis are only 7s??? Doesn't add up for sure. I like the 6.5 Clemente better than the 7.

    Nice pop, Were is the Mantle image
  • Mike,
    Some really nice 62's. The Mazeroski in PSA8 VCP average for last 5 sales is $250.40. The sales were from the last one sold as follows $174.49, 197.50, 285.00, 291.00, 304.00. Gary

    I think the centering on the right maz got ya..
    the right one.. looks like it might be an 8 on a good day
  • Great grades on those brown bordered beauties Mike! Sounds like you made a fantastic pickup on that raw lot. That Tuttle should bring nice coin as well as the Stephens.

    There are several that I'd be interested in if you're looking to sell.

    The color on the 6.5 Clemente is WAY nicer.

  • Bosox1976Bosox1976 Posts: 8,550 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Thanks guys. In response to some of the comments:

    a. Centering on one of the Maz cards may be the issue - agree
    b. Will cards be for sale? - all of the 8's and above will be on ebay, many of the 7's & 7.5's too. Quite a few crack and resubs too.
    c. The 6.5 Clemente is staying in my NM set. I agree that it is much nicer than the 7 - particularly the vivid coloring.

    << <i>Thanks guys. In response to some of the comments:

    Only the left one has a little L/R centering issue. It looks like they put too much emphasis on the little bit of "snow" in the Maz on the right.



    << <i>c. The 6.5 Clemente is staying in my NM set. I agree that it is much nicer than the 7 - particularly the vivid coloring. >>



    The 6.5 is visually nicer in my opinion, and much a clearer picture without the red hue in Clemente's bat, face, and jersey. A raw keeper indeed.
