1976 Ryan:
About the 1976 Ryan...I think I might sub it again to see if they'll give it another pass. Probstein sold a 10 last night for 3K and now I can't find the completed listing to compare the two. There was another 10 listed recently (link here) that has just as much snow on the jersey as mine does. Anyway it's a great card so I may take my chance.
Here's one last bit of fun news (just straight regular sub):

The 76 Ryan is fair to me. The bottom left corner looks to be too soft for a Gem Mint grade in my opinion. Still a beautiful card though!

Thanks! I actually think the corner is good, but the snow on the bottom border is now bugging me after looking at the scan. I now think it's a 9 and won't be subbing again.

Nice cards. Actually the 8.0 75 looks better than the 8.5. The 8.5 has a bit of a tilt that the 8.0 does not have
