First PSA Submission in 2 Years--GRADES POPPED!

TonyC

I have not had a PSA submission in about 2 years. The 1952 Topps lot I posted here prompted me to sign back up for 15 free submissions. Below are my son's and I's guesses on grades and the scans. Feel free to post your own guesses!

The Gretzky is a 6.5 to 7. No way it would grade a 7.5.

Nice group of cards.

Always loved the Mecca cards!

The Gretzky I think will pull a 5. Both left corners seem to have touches,
white mark/indent/paper loss above N in wayne on top, big fisheye on top
left inside blue border and centering will all bring the grade down.

Hope I'm wrong and you get a generous grader.

Very nice Johnny U. 5 bad day, 6 good day. They are pretty tough on that card.

Good luck with the sub.

Nice cards. Good luck and thanks for posting.

Is the Matthewson misprinted or is the double image normal? Love the Brooks Robinson card.

Grades popped a few minutes ago!

I am scratching my head on the Bunning and Richardson, and I am disappointed that the Gretzky got an 8 OC rather than a 7 (I guess I should have NQed it). The Berra didn't have a crease, so I am surprised it was a 3, but a straight 3 is equal to a 5 PD, so not a huge deal.

WTG Mike. Your son and you made some real good estimates on the grades.

RE: Your comment on the Gretzky ... if you ask for no qualifiers I believe it would have gotten a straight "6". (A two point drop, no?)

Mike ... the Robinson received a "6" and that was your guess, no?

Good catch, I meant to say Richardson, not Robinson.

I like the Mathewson with the double/ghost image.

That was a nice sub.
