1969 Topps Basketball Rulers

When did psa start grading these? Are they considered tall boys as they surely are oversized.
A seller had some on ebay and a psa 8 frazier went for more than a psa 8 regular card.....

Are these actually in the pop repoprt and SMR/

Not sure when they started grading them, but there are currently 28 in the pop report (as of 1/22/10).

PSA 10: 0
PSA 9: 2
PSA 8: 8
PSA 7: 4
PSA 6.5: 1
PSA 6: 5
PSA 5: 6
PSA 4: 1
AUTH: 1

Nothing on them in SMR. I agree that they must be tall boys, or more likely, supersized.

Didn't know they graded them either.
Just checked and saw a few on eBay (they aren't mine)
here is 1 of the scans.
The seller has small scans, but at least you can get an idea how the slab looks.

Okay, that seller gets the prize for highest ratio of slab size to image size (I think it's about 5,000 to 1).

Looks more like a ticket holder? I don't have any graded tix, can someone confirm? Ratio looks off for a tall-boy or supersize holder.

I have 2 graded from gai that I have had for quite a long time. Both say 1sr graded.
Also have a number of very nice rulers just as nice....
I had no idea they were worth that much...now I'm kicking myself in the butt as I sold some a while ago..

Now that PSA grades them I might send some out when I join again this year

The rulers are 2-1/2" x 9-7/8". Using that as a guide, the slab pictured is minimally 5.4" x 11.6" (that's the physical size of the image--the slab looks like it extends outside of the scan).
