    Some real nice cards there, David! I recall posting that the Rose looked like an 8.5 when you first posted them. Centering (and notch on top edge) is what sunk the 72 Ryan. The 75 mini Ryan is a nice card, too, just a tad low. Congrats!

    Thanks Tim

    It was the edge ding on the top edge that sunk the Ryan (kinda expected that it would). T/B centering on the 75 mini Ryan
    was also not quite there.

    The 71 Blyleven RC that came back as an 8 was from a rack I got from BBCE. That was a nice hit.

    Still to come back: 69 Alcindor Tall Boy (possible 8), some mid-grade pre-war (T205s, Triple Folder, Goudeys, Play Ball and Diamond Stars)
    and a few PSA/DNA autographed cards (McCovey RC, and late 60s Starr and Unitas).

    Probably sending off a submission on the Monthly Special shortly too.

    The 72 Ryan does have an outside shot at a 9, imo, so if you're sending any cards in on the monthly review special, it might be worth a shot..

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
