First Pack Submission Grades Just Popped. I'm Thrilled!

Overall very pleased with the grades. I'm also happy with the '67 cello grading out as that was one I wasn't sure of. It was an eBay purchase and I've seen too many packs with George Scott on top like this one. I'm not surprised at all with the '65 not grading out. That too was an eBay purchase several years ago and it didn't look right. I should have returned it when I bought it but it was already the replacement pack for the one I rejected. I guess it was made to order. I don't recall the seller. The rest mostly came from BBCE, BBC Kid or Perfect Card Company. Also thrilled that the '74 OPC hung in there to get slabbed. The seal was hanging by a thread and I was concerned it would pop loose during shipping. I've asked to get the Tom Tresh added to the label of the 1963 pack.

    Thanks, will do. I was torn about submitting that pack because I liked the look of it in the pack box. In the end I decided to get it slabbed.

    I used my x-ray vision to confirm that the pack contains Gaylord Perry, Tom Seaver, Al Kaline, Rod Carew, Ron Santo, Willie Stargell, Hoyt Wilhelm and Johnny Bench. So no need to rip it open. image

    Unfortunately 6th series stops at 506. So no Rose RC. It does have Tom Tresh on the back though. I've resubmitted it for mechanical error because they failed to note that on the label despite my request to do so.

    Also, I will be ripping the 1965 pack in the near future. Being that it was an eBay purchase and obviously resealed, I expect nothing but commons, broken gum from a modern pack and a nice wrapper. So it won't be that exciting but I'll still post the results.
