My first ever grading sub has been delivered...

and boy am I super stoked! They were all 5 unopened Fottball cellos with Star Rookies on top. No 10's but I don't care as the main reason for the Submissions was to protect and authenticate! Here they are:

First Two are a 1980 Cello w/ Simms RC and 1982 Cello w/ LT RC. I am a huge Giants fan, that grew up in a 49er Household. My dad was a Niner diehard, such is the reason for the following pics. I always wanted to find these in decent condition and was able to.

Next are two 1981 Cellos w/ Montana RCs. I consider Montana the greatest QB to play the game, especially in the clutch (Eli being a close second image). I was lucky enough to be at the 88 SB and watched the drive that ended with a Game Winning John Taylor catch in the end zone. The 7 was my first ever "Unopened Star Pack" purcahse so I was a bit hasty on getting it, not caring about the Fottball over his face image, but I was able to pic a better one up later.

And finally the Crown Jewel of my collection! A 1976 Cello w/ Walter Payton RC showing !!!!!!!! I became a Payton fan much later in life. I consider him the greatest player ever to play the game and most exciting to watch. It was always a "pipe dream" to find one let alone own one, but a few years back I purchased this off eBay. It was originally encased in a GAI holder and I so wanted it to get a PSA grade due to how horrid GAI holders are in my opinion. Boy am I happy about this one. It's funny because PSA sent the above four out to me first and the Payton about 3 weeks later. I was so scared I was going to get a call saying it was fake or something had happened to it. What a relief to get it back!
