Hey everybody just wanted to say hello , I only have a 1968 Topps Baseball set registered , trying to complete it in PSA 8 , I have other graded cards from 1972-73 Topps Basketball that I would eventually register and start the set when I get the time. Also I have a bunch of uncompleted raw sets that I have been picking apart to see which one's I want to grade . This truly is a great hobby!!

P.S hopefully the Dodgers clinch tonight!!!

mmmmmmmmmmm 68's huh? Welcome to the boards and good luck with the set if you need any help with the set let me know. Im about 95% in 8's with a lot of doubles.

dodgerfan · September 30, 2009 12:42PM

cool , yes definitely!!! I have the 68 set raw already like I said Im going through each card and sending them in to get graded , so when thats done I'll see where I stand

a lot of times 68's are a bit** to grade. There are invisible creases that PSA finds, also the corners are a duzy as well. A little sugestion If you put up some nice scans of your best cards Im sure you will have plenty of help on the boards on what the grade will possibly recieve and some more advice. I just hate to see more PSA 3's. 4's graded in the set. I think I did enough of that when I first started grading this set

I have a decent magnifier , I know a 10X jewlers loupe is the way to go , I'll put some scans up and see what you guys think , last time I tried to use it though the computer didnt recognize it , so I got to fix that
