Hmmm...Maybe You Can Find Decent Cards on Craigslist

Just happened to check the Craigslist collectibles ads the other day and came across a collection for sale. While most of it was modern star cards (great dollar box material) that I wasn't interested in, I did manage to pickup a few cards pictured below. Also picked up a nice vintage lot from a Yahoo board the other day that included a '62 Post Mantle, '58 Koufax, '61 Koufax, '66 Mantle, '60 Mays, '60 Musial and a few others. Sorry, I didn't think to scan those before I put them away.

Here's today's haul. Not pictured is a BGS 8 1985 Topps McGwire and a dozen 1980 Topps HOF'ers and 1986 Fleer Commons:

    Can you point out where? There is no seepage of black ink into the edges and nothing shows under a blacklight. Sheen appears consistent when held to light. Not saying it isn't, just need to understand where.

    I concur, you can sometimes find good stuff on Craigslist! My friend and I have also started frequenting Estate Sales that are listed in our area - sometimes you can grab some good stuff there too!

    Hard to see bottom right, but top 2 corners sure look like recolor. Maybe its because of the plastic against it?
    You got some nice stuff though

    Thanks for the feedback. At first in hand I thought you might be on to something, but under a loupe it all looks fine. I'll know for sure once I sub it and get it back from PSA. I could use it for my '71 set, so I'll keep my fingers crossed.
