Grades popped Yaz and Banks - 1971 Topps Greatest Moments

I've generally been buying PSA graded cards of this set but in the past 2 weeks I took a chance on a couple of raw cards in eBay. Very, very happy with the results:

    Missing an "s" in Sets Major League Record on the Mr. Cub card?

    All the Banks cards in the set are like that. Must have been a bad printing plate or something.

    Every Banks has this printing flaw.

    Those are great cards if they haven't been touched up

    my thought exactly. Tough to notice when someone uses black marker to color in the edges. Send them to PSA-best of luck

    Yeah, I hear you about the touched up part. I bought them from an eBay seller named waverly82. Very solid reputation.

    (seriously, I studied the edges pretty carefully on these cards - they look good).

    Come on guys - I was kidding about waverly82! The cards were purchased from 2 different eBay sources.

    I'm not kidding about this though: I do have a 1971 regular issue Topps Fergie Jenkins purchased from waverly a few years ago that I'm pretty sure is touched up.

    Grades popped onthese two: Six on the Banks, no slab miscut on the Yaz. I've got several 71 Greatest Moments in PSA slabs with the same cut as the Yaz.
