    Heh heh - no fair looking it up!

    I thought I could get them to bump a '76 by sending three of them, but no luck on a 10. Glad to have the '74 Ryan bump though.

    I thought that any one of them could get the bump except the Jackson.

    I think that is the correct grade too.. I was gonna say 9.. but thought they may just give it a 8.5
    I mean the did grade it an 8 at one point

    Glad they re-slabbed the 74 Ryan with the correct grade.
    What's keeping that 76 Ryan out of a 10 holder? Bottom right rough edge (from the front)? That card looks amazing.

    Was the 62 Mantle an attempt at the .5 centering bump?

    Yes - I hoped Mantle or Schmidt could pick up a .5 for centering. Mantle has a nice clean image too - very crisp.

    I think the 76 Ryan is not vibrant enough colorwise. I may crack it out and give it a shot or two though, just thought I'd try it once in the 9 holder.

    Cracking a 9 is very risky, think the white spot on the hat will keep it from ever being a 10.

    Sorry about looking up the cert #, but I was brought up to use any edge that I could legally obtain.

    I do believe the prize for the correct answer was any one of the cards? Right? I'll take your choice, no need to abuse the system twice. image

    I do think cracking Mickey would be a better gamble. There is more room to move there.

    I was going to ask, well I did ask, why review 9's, then it dawned on me to read the entire thread.

    Good for you.

    I think there's too much print snow on the Schmidt to get a higher grade.
