Anyone knowledgeable about 1964 Topps baseball?

I am helping an older woman who has piles of 64 T baseball in really high grade. I am selling them for her.
Some stars are present, some are gone, but piles of high grade commons looks like all series
I told her I would send some to be graded for her. Anyone know of any I should keep an eye out for, that bring good money in PSA 8 or 9?
Thanks in advance

    Wasn't there an Asian player that had his first card in this set? I seem to remember that card was worth a lot in high grade.

    Good luck!

    I would say you look for the same things as on all 1960's-1970's cards.... sharp corners, centering, color/gloss, etc. Rough cut edges probably won't hurt you. However, be sure to check the back of the card as the 1964's have an orange background on the reverse which shows any corner wear easily.

    I would think that ANY cards that you think are "9" worthy should be graded.

    I think that was Murakami but his RC was in the 1965 set.

    tough 8's, golden if you find a 9, especially O's Team

    Nice Floods!

    Pops for 8 are pretty much all high (no real toughies). Only low # with a pop below 40 I saw was #461.

    I sold a bunch of 8.5's a couple of months ago and didn't do much better than 8's. Definitely shoot for 9's only, as 8's are a breakeven proposition for this year...
