    I've been eyeing this card on ebay for over a year & finally pulled the trigger. It completes my 1976 All-Star SGC graded set...

    Guys -- I'm on a major drought to finish off my want list. Can anyone help me out? I'd consider some mint cards to submit for submission. Uncertain why these cards are so hard to find...

    I'm digging the black holders with SGC. But, the older SGC labels look better IMO.

    good luck getting the last few.

    It's been a while since I've made some significant upgrades or additions.

    First up is 1 of 2 PSA 10 Benito Santiago cards ever graded. PM me if you want to make an offer on the other one - I also have a PSA 9 for sale.

    I'm down to just 6 cards to complete the 1975 to 1989 high-grade collection.

    And the Phase I quest comes to a close after nearly 8 years with my first self-submission to PSA of the final 6 cards needed. I'm especially pleased on the 1985 Bob Knepper, as it's a super-tough card in 9 or 10 grade.

    I now have all 1975 to 1989 Topps All-Star designated cards in 8.5 to 10 grade. 1981 to 1989 all in PSA 9 or 10. See top of thread for upgrades I would like to have on SGC 92 cards from 1975 to 1978.

    I will add on to the thread as I make those upgrades, and go further back in SGC graded cards from 1968 to 1974. I may choose to do 1969 and 1970 in PSA 8 or higher holders due to the difficulty in high grades of those years.
