    I purchased this 1962 Topps Baseball Wax Pack 1st Series with Managers' Dream #18 on back in late 2023 as a GAI-7.5. I just received notice the pack is authentic and graded a PSA-5 (after examining the pack...I thought it would grade between a 5 and 7 on the PSA grade scale, so not disappointed with the grade). There are now only four (4) 1962 1st series packs graded by PSA.

    In the 1960s...there are three (3) series-designated wax packs loaded with star power in the decade. Here are those valuable packs:

    1960 Topps Baseball Wax Pack Series #4 (Mantle, McCovey RC, Clemente, Koufax, Aaron)
    1966 Topps Baseball Wax Pack Series #1 (Mays, Mantle, Rose, Yaz, Catfish Hunter, Phil Niekro and Perez)
    1962 Topps Baseball Wax Pack Series #1 (Maris, Koufax, Clemente, Managers' Dream, Banks, Mathews, B. Robinson, Musial, Killebrew)

    I am extremely excited to have this pack authenticated and slabbed by PSA. Here it is with a red oval showing the word "Mantle".

    That presents really well for a 5, IMO. Congrats on a dynamite pack!

    Finally got this card without the dreaded smudge or the black mark next to Molitor's head.

    I have been looking for that elusive combo. Beautiful Molitor/Trammell congrats.

    Yeah. Those are so tough. I did get a 9 about a year ago but that’s a very tough card

    I was slumming at Big Lots and stumbled across these beauties. $14.99 each - 20% coupon = Great Deal on a 2023 FB Blaster. Big Lots usually has value packs and hangers, but occassionally the blaster makes it through the liquidations. These probably came from a Target or Walmart that was closed down.

    The lesson learned is sometimes stop by and check out the fat chicks, you may be surprised. I went in looking for a cheap date and left in love!

    Please post a pickup you’re proud of so we can nitpick the condition.

    Sorry, that was not my intention.
    It is just with all the grading being all over the place. PSA 8 being 10's and 10's being 8's I thought it looked a little rough. Look at the bottom edges , then look at the other card. the other card is perfect. Maybe I was wrong but I thought it was obvious.

    Hard to not step on toes here, but, I see the top edge look like this consistently on certain scans.

    Here's an example.

    That scan is pretty wild. Here's the card before I cracked it out. (link to reduce post length)

    side-note: I think there's a hair from one of my dogs in the sleeve. I hope it gets slabbed with that!

    Has the value for this card in PSA 8 and 9 gone down or up since COVID hit the world?
