1977 OPC wax pack rip

Just opened a pack of 77 opc and pulled a beautiful, richly colored Brett. Unfortunately, the snow is likely going to saddle it with a PD if submitted. That is one frustrating part of ripping vintage wax--even when you pull a nicely centered key card, the surface demons are still out to get you, LOL!

Maybe just my screen - but that doesn't look like an egregious amount of snow?
Mike, I am hoping you are correct! Will add it to the pile of OPC cards I've pulled over the past few months, including the 74 & 77 Ryans, a real sharp 78 Murray, and a #1 74 Aaron #1 card that is OC but a great card nonetheless.
Arthur, my cats take exception to your recommendation! Actually, it's not the scanner so much as the card savers that are like a magnet to cat hairs. I use air in a can before I package them up to ship out, LOL..

I could see this going either way between an 8 and a 9. A very nice card for sure.
Now stop the madness and keep them sealed.....

Murray could get a 9, but I'll give it a conservative 8. Love the color!
Now..the Brett, wow. Bummer on the print! Great card for sure otherwise. Just tell them it was snowing in Kansas!

<< <i>Tim, if the centering is at least 65/35, it will be a 9 I think >>
My experience lately is that PSA is much tougher than advertised on the centering. I've received 7's on cards that are perfect but centered right around 65/35, maybe a hair worse. Supposedly should be fine for an 8, but I never get 8's on these. I wouldn't expect a 9 these days on anything that's worse than 60/40.

<< <i>Thanks, Guru! Here's the 78 OPC Murray card. Any opinions on the grade?
Hey Tim
If it weren't for the tilt, I would give it an OPC 9 - so I'm thinking 8. And I'm only wrong most of the time.
Geesh Tim, I leave the boards for awhile and you start busting packs every other day. You have officially been banned from the unopened collectors club until you repent. And stop getting inspiration from Chris, he is a lost cause.
