I have this 1977 OPC baseball pack that was recently rejected for grading by PSA recently, I decided to rip it, as I have some additional packs with HOF's showing or that have been graded. This pack had the former Pirate Al Oliver face out on the back:

Even though these 2 cards are OC, it is always nice to pull a Munson and a Brett:

This the first 1977 OPC pack that I have ripped, so it was fun. I love the rough cuts!!

As a side note, I pray that CPAMike is not going into convulsions at the site of this. Don't worry, I won't be ripping my other 77 OPC.

    Yeah, That is a great looking Munson. That card is a PIA to find centered even remotely well.
    I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    yeah, was going to say the centering on that Munson is not bad at all. Very nice!

    Nice card John. Tough card to get in a 9 holder

    Looks great in the holder. I'm guessing the notch on top left is only thing keeping it from a 9.


    Thanks,

    I was just wondering about peoples opinions to the difference of an 8(NQ) compared to a 9OC.
    In certain instances I prefer a 9OC, even though I think it doesn't rate as high in the Set Registry.

    PS I know thats not what this thread is about, but it is a perfect example.
    Would you have minded a 9OC?

    A 9OC is the technical equivalent of a straight 7, so I'd prefer the straight 8 anytime. As for whether a 9OC is preferrable to a 7? The 9OC usually commands the higher price.
