First and only Andre the Giant from the magazine to be better than "Authentic".
I take it they ask that a qualifier not be given or it would be an 8OC??
Yes, and not only are the perforations an issue but also the centering. Some are found with even less white border on the top.

I finally picked up a 1963 PSA 8 Lou Brock with near perfect centering. A few print marks are present but I'm more of a centering freak. Here are all 4 of my Lou Brock cards. I wanted all 3 years he was a Cub and the 1970 card because I collect a bunch of the stars from that year. I've heard his health isn't very good. 6 days ago, it was revealed to the public that he has bone cancer. I hope him well in his fight. In 1974, Lou Brock stole 118 bases which was a record at the time. He was 35 years old!!!!
Picked up a new Stan the Man. The seller also had a nice Mays, but I lost out on that one. Still happy with getting the Musial.

Things are going slow with my '52 build so I have thrown my hat in the ring with Heritage autos. These are the only autos I collect right now. The first six just came back from PSA as my renewal special from last year, just got it in in time before it expires this month. The Correa and Trout were raw pulls from boxes this year. The other 4 were raw purchases that I used to round out the submission. The remaining cards were purchased graded. The BGS cards and raw Trout will be making their way to New Port Beach soon. Time to clean the scanner, cases and cards are much better than some appear in the scans.
1968 OPC NL Batting Leaders (Clemente, Gonzalez, Alou) SGC 96 MINT. Fair chance at a PSA crossover here gentlemen? I am willing to take an 8.5 as well, but don't plan to crack out.
Picked this up a month ago but had to get it reholdered due to an incorrect flip. Nicest 8 of this card I've ever seen! The "corrected" version is shown below for comparison.
What gloss and BOLD color on that Yount! Image really pops.
Very happy to add this classic to the collection. Rarely nicely centered plus the Babe's hair has serious swag. Love the silhouettes at the bottom also.

Arse, even Secretstash thought so. The notation in the above post 'I do think front and back face up is possible as well, just less likely because it requires a mid pack flip to happen' was quite erotic.
picked a grab bag of card at a 2nd hand store and found a 1/1 in it and also bought a signed hockey stick for $6.99 with 21 sigs on it. the stick names are not all identified, but figured out most ( Ed chadwick , Jim Morrison , Gus Bodnar , Milt Schmidt , Fred Stanfield , Bill Gadsby , Terry Martin , Jerry Toppazzini , Leo Labine , John McCormack , Bep Guidolin , Danny Lewicki , Red Sullivan , Sid Smith , Doug Favell , Gilbert Dionne , Troy Crowder , Keith Jones )

Those are some nice Brocks, especially the 62 and the older flip. Sad to hear that he has bone cancer, I hope that it was caught in the early stages.

Yes it is not much, however reminds me of my youth. It is 4SC so thanks EBay Bucks. In hand it is very sharp. 4SC 10 worthy?
Awesome looking Brocks. Well done!

Nice Musial. He's one of the players I still need. I just want to have one of his cards for my collection.
Picked this up for my 54 Topps mid grade set.

Great cards everyone!!
Stingray - that Frank House is sweet!! Looks WAY better than a 6.5
Picked up this Brady in March and got it back from PSA re-holdering in April.
I am not sure when Card Case Pro changed their bags over to BLACK from Gray but the BLACK is super sharp with cards.
That Brady is sexy.
....I mean the card.
Some O-PEE-CHEE love.
