    Are you looking for graded or raw? And what is your condition range?
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    Graded. Preferably PSA but SGC ok. Open to a range of grades from 3-6.5, all depends on centering and overall eye appeal. When it came to the 52 Topps I always thought I'd have to get a 4 or 5 to be happy. Wound up with a 3 that presents better than all the 4s I had handled. So I'm open. Thanks.

    You need to find one that's like my 6 (not for sale). Ridiculously nice for the grade.

    Thanks. Now I'm jealous image

    Yeah that's exactly the kind of centering I'm after. I'll take that card, or one with same image and centering but with worse corners or a slight crease off his image that knocks it down. But that 6 is the dream.

    Well if anyone has a lead on a promo example, holler.

    Sick PSA 6, I'll be in the market for one in a few years and I'd be content with that one any day of the week. That doesn't rate a .5 bump?

    I wonder what kept that from a 6.5? It is an absolute beautiful card! I would be proud to own either one of them!

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)
