What I really like is how he remembers so many of the players and you can hear him quietly saying oh so and so was a great player, some great memories there for sure.
Thanks for taking the time to show us some of Norm's cards.

muggy - I skimmed through the video and that's a great find. However, as you stated several times, it all comes down to condition. Based on what I saw, which was not the entire video, it looks like they would grade around a 4.
For example, one '61 card you showed had 4 rounded corners and you said it would grade at a 5 to 5.5, which IMO, would not be the case.
Good luck!
So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

5000.00 on grading When you put it like that I would rather just buy a 1952 mantle or maybe anything other than 5000.00 worth in grading. Did you send it cards that you felt were Nm or better or just key cards what ever the grade was? Ive been putting off my latest sub for some time and mainly bc of the price. Im sending in 111 cards to PSA this month whenever I get time to make it to the post office. Im still not happy spending the 600.00 for those. I hope you used a good service and Im curious to see what made you send in for say a certain card. Condition looking for 7s or better or just to have them slabbed Also if you know this already. What do you think the #1 card was in this whole collection?
To be clear... $10/per on cards $100 - $500 declared value which wasn't that many, the majority were at a much cheaper submission price.
These cards are actually not really even in high grade (However, Bowman's are beautiful), but some of the early 50's and 60 I just needed to get in PSA holders, 'so much easier to sell that way and I should be able to recoup that money.
I just took great pictures of the 1970 and 1975 set and will post soon - these will be the first 2 sets offered. 1970.... every card has 4 sharp corners. My biz partner just said that we should have graded these but, all along I just planned on selling the sets to get some money back as quickly as possible...
I will always try to describe contents and description as accurately as possible and I always take pride in customer satisfaction.
That being said, this 1970 set is freakin' gorgeous, near mint! Literally, every card essentially has 4 SHARP CORNERS. It was bought as a complete set in 1970 by Norman, not put together individually. Centering is the only thing that varies (as usual) and is off a little on some top to bottom but, it really is a pristine set. Others are not gonna be in this condition, but this one happens to be.
Make an offer in a private message, I am listening.
1975 is really nice too and bought in 1975 as a complete set. They are all sharp, centering varies as always - but worth noting, I saw 1 checklist with pencil on it.
I will always stand behind by cards, packs, and most importantly, my word.
>>May I suggest you throw the photos of the sets over to the Buy Sell Trade board also. More eyes on them wouldn't hurt.>> Yes, I really have never sold through this forum before, I am just a collector and not a dealer or seller. 99 out of every 100 transactions on ebay have been as a buyer.
UNTIL NOW!!!
I wanted to start with people that followed this thread and give them the opportunity first, but yeah - i guess I will be "all over" the BST boards soon and often.
muggy - did you buy the collection from Norman? Based on your last video, sounds like you did. If so, congrats on the purchase and good luck with the sale.

Is Norman really considering calling Mr Mint?
If he does, I hope you will be there to watch over the whole transaction and document it on video.
These are very entertaining and educational videos.

Doug, Can I have Normans shoebox full of 52 Topps?
Mr. Mug, do you believe Mint would offer Norman more or less than the guy he dealt with from Wisconson on YouTube?
For example, one '61 card you showed had 4 rounded corners and you said it would grade at a 5 to 5.5, which IMO, would not be the case.
Good luck!
