    WOAH. Nice, very nice.
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.
  • Very nice!

    What grade are you expecting on the 48 Leaf? That's one of my all time favorite cards

    ThoseBackPages, I cracked the '48-49 Leaf out of an SGC 60, so I'm hoping for at least a 5. Here's the original scan in the SGC holder.

    The black spec next to his eye was a piece of dirt that was trapped in the SGC holder. I was glad to crack it out just to gently wipe away the dirt. I should get that poppage no later than Friday.

    As for the others - I cracked the '52 Topps out of an SGC 50, so I'd really like to get a 4 on it. I think it might come back a 3 though. It's got a scratch on the front that takes away from an overall fairly appealing card.

    The other two Bond Breads will be very low grades. One is a surefire PSA 1, and the other could go anywhere from a 2 to a 4.

    The fifth card is an authentic only issue - Star Cal Decals Jackie Robinson.
  • great color on your Jackie Leaf, and nice centering as well.

  • I am so jealous! I will probably never get my hands on any of the the bond bread cards. Too pricey. Great job.

  • Jason,

    I feel the same way about the Hocus Focus card!! LOL

    I've been very fortunate in obtaining these Bond Bread cards. It hasn't been cheap, but it hasn't been out of this world either.

    You'll get one.
  • Thanks TBP... I really hope PSA gives at least the same grade as it was with SGC before I cracked it.
