    No words. There...are...just...no...words.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    He might of had something there if the card were an OPC instead of a Topps version.

    << <i>This not exactly how PSA returned the items. However, this is an authentic original version of 1968 Nolan Ryan Mets Rookie Card #177. Presented like this is the sellers impression of the way that this card really ought to have been cut all along, miscut or not. The Miscut card and the PSA tag are authentic, and these items were returned in plastic sleeves. >>



    Yeah, that explanation makes perfect sense.

    You guys...think ya know it all....well apparently not !!!!!!!!!!!!

    PSA is now going to grade multi players cards singly...like the 1969 topps 4 in 1 football.

    You can grade the whole card or players individually.

    Just cut the player out and send it in. Wallla a new player card for the master set registry.

    They didn't, it's just a loose PSA label and half a card.

    How did it sell? He'd have to pay me to take it.
  • mlbfan2mlbfan2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭
    Sold for $75. You can buy a whole Ryan rookie for less than that.

    Not as terrible as $75.

    Actually, I think it should have been returned and marked as "TRIMMED" or "ALTERED". "MISCUT" is typically for factory-related cuts.

    obviously everyone isn't getting it because they haven't read the description...

    they cut a ryan card in half, put it in a "clamshell" (which porbably means screwdown holder, notice you can't see the bottom of the holder in any of the pictures)

    they then peeled off a label from an actual PSA graded Ryan card and put it on that "clamshell"

    a mind is a terrible thing to waste, especially when you spend time thinking about weird stuff instead of just reading about what actually happened
