    Did you cut any of your fingers off trying to cut those out? Looks like Muhammad Ali cut those.

    Every card tells an individual story. In the case of your cards, though, their common theme is "Jesus, what did this guy eat today?" image

    Give me a break, I was only eight years old when I cut these. You should see the nice "D" I put on the back of these so they wouldn't get mixed up with my brothers cards.image

    the corners on the Ozzie Smith are not too bad...however it looks sort of miscut.

    That Yaz/Oliva card looks like it got the Mike Lavalliere treatment.

    One day when badly miscut cards become all the collecting rage and that Ozzie Smith rookie is worth thousands of dollars, you'll have the last laugh.

    I LOVE those cards- Im not kidding either. Beat up old cards have so much character to them IMO, I love to get a nice example just as much as the next guy but there is something to be said about a card that gets beat up from all its travels.

    They are nice and all, but do any show any signs of creases?

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I heard in a thread somewhere that PSA grading is tough right now, but I see no reason whatsoever that the whole lot wouldn't come back as 10's from PRO or GEM.

    Great thread Clemaz, I've been actually organizing many of my HOF & favorite cards I had when I was a kid and was thinking about starting a thread as well.

    When you can, I'd love to see a few more of your cards...those are cool. How are you going to store those cards? I was thinking about putting mine into page holders.
