I submitted these 3 packs at the National in August. Just got 'em back this week. The '72 OPC pack was from a group BBCE purchase. The Carew cello was a crack out from a GAI 8.5 holder. Reggie was purchased raw on eBay. Very happy with the results.

I remember that Jackson pack when it was sold on ebay. I didn't think T/B centering would garner a Mint 9 grade but you did well on that one.

<< <i>Grote - I do remember you commenting about he centering of that pack. I just checked out PSA's pack grading standards and for 9 it says 80-20.This pack looks like it falls well within that. >>
I don't have a pixel counter but have submitted probably over 100 1975 cello packs, and I'd estimate that 8 out of 10 times that pack will come back a PSA 8 due to T/B centering. A borderline 9, but still a very nice pack.
Edit to add: The Carew cello graded an 8 due to L/R centering, and the T/B centering on the Jackson cello is very similar to that. Most people don't notice the T/B centering as much as L/R as the L/R centering is more visually striking.

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.
