got some cards back from PSA, was actually a little disappointed in some of the 9's I got as they were thoroughly looked over and I think were subjectively given 9's, especially this Gleyber. The pink Judge however was a big tough to find card, which due to the printing plate, had a dimple so I knew it wouldn't score higher.

Great Mj! Those 95 Skybox foil inserts were brutal as far as chipping goes not to mention many coming from the factory on the small size. That one is gorgeous.
@erikthredd - Thanks Erik!! Hope you are doing well. I still pick up graded cards here and there but mostly have been after vintage unopened as of recent.
Always wanted a Roy jersey as a kid, but never got one. I picked this one up the other day, with the added bonus of a 2001 Stanley Cup patch on it:

I've been on a certified autograph kick this month. The BGS will get cracked out and these will go to PSA, not so much for hopes of high grades but I want to display them with the actual rookies and I like uniformity.
The rest will stay as is

A couple more additions tonight. The McNabb is one I've tried to get a few times in the past:
And continuing with the Roy jersey theme, I had to have this one. On to framing once it's received:

Sold my PSA 8 for a profit and used the cash to fund a PSA 9. Looks pretty sharp. Looks the slight off centering is what held it back.
Love that card! The Bowman and Bowman Chrome are Brady’s best looking RCs, in my opinion. Congrats!
I bought a box of 2019 Finest for 74 bucks - the seller was an independent contract seller for Topps - my invoice actually has Topps on it - so it's not a secondary item - you could only buy 1 box - these were originally selling around 130 -40 per box.
I got another lucky hit - this series featured Rivera and low and behold - I pull a Rivera!
An Impactful trio of Prime Time's and one of my favorite hitters of the 80's, Pedro Guerrero. Dude could hit. As a side note I'm having the most fun collecting now that I probably ever have, or at least since 1984
I’ve always kept every ticket stub from every game I’ve ever been to, but have never really bought stubs. As a college football fan though these were too good a deal to pass up. Two historic rivalries here.
Picked up this tough item for my Yaz master set. I know that the pop report is screwed up, but there still aren't many of these out there.
Also I've really enjoyed following Mike Yastrzemski's season. I've resisted collecting his cards, but I did pick up this card of him with his grandfather:

October is my birthday month. I used it as an opportunity to purchase a 1951 Bowman Phil Rizzuto card. I owned this card in college, but I was upset about a stain on the back, so I ended up selling it many years ago. I finally replaced it. I also picked up a 1978 Topps George Brett card to add to my raw mint 1978 Topps Baseball set, and a 1985 Topps Don Mattingly card to finally complete my PSA GEM MT 10 Topps Don Mattingly set. It took me six years to complete the PSA GEM MT 10 Don Mattingly set. I have provided a link below.

Never before seen Joe Louis card. I just got it from Ebay. It has a blank back. It's a mystery. It was listed as a mexican card from the 1960s. I just couldn't pass it up. I'm going to take a mauling from my wife, but I just had to have it.
I have only seen two copies of this card surface in the past ten years and have bought both. The numbered to 25 Longevity Holofoil is Lesnar's lowest print run football card. My first copy was a PSA 9 already graded and I will be sending this in for sure.

But, I did some some clunkers too.
That Rivera is a stellar hit. Congrats.
Thanx Mike.
This is one of my favorite Griffey cards. Tough condition card, pop 4, 1 higher.

Love this card! Surprisingly very condition sensitive. Subbed an artist proof variation a while back and came back a 7. That's a gorgeous example.
