    Thanks for sharing, looks legit to me, who was the player with the crease?

    I've opened 1 1st series pack and seen another one opened and we each got 3 4 in 1 cards too.

  • Sharp cards! You have to be pretty happy with that result.

  • That Curtis looks pretty minty
    From what I can tell, 707 is the DOLLAR STORE compared to deans_cards. For what that guy charges, if I ever bought anything from him I would expect it to be delivered to me in a frickin' limo.

    Its a low pop 8. I think 8s for 60.00 bucks.
    Here it is. Crease on the front but not the back.

    The cards have great centering for that series. The crease on the Bob Brown would have been smack in the center of the sheet, vertically, so maybe the sheet got bent in the middle while they were handling it. (Here is what the uncut sheet looked like.)

    It's interesting to see that the cards came from different parts of the sheet. I thought that Topps numbered the cards pseudo-randomly on sheets so that they could put neighboring cards from the sheet into a pack and they would still appear random. If they put cards from all over the sheet into the packs, I don't see why they needed the pseudo-random numbering.

    Thanks for posting them!

    He makes perfect sense! I was going to guess him or Rosey Taylor.

    Overall happy with them. Mainly the 4in1s. The Piccolo is perfect and will be sending in all the cards to PSA.
  • There are some nice cads in there condition wise. The 4-1 Piccolo is sweet as well. The Curtis will grade high. Is that purple spot near his face on the card or the scanner?

    What kind of value do the 4-1 have?

    about a year and a half ago 8s were $200.00.

    Is the economy actually worse off than it was 1.5 years ago? Or are more cards just coming to light? The fundamentals suggest the economy is better than it was at that time - but certainly not great. Are people just more conservative with "extra" hobby stuff?

    Nary a dud in the bunch. That Piccolo is a special card, sentimentally. Great pulls.
