I am going to submit these on the 5 day/$13 special tomorrow. Feel good about some and crapshoot on a couple others.
The winner will get the SCD 7 Billy Williams - a beautiful vending card with a touched lower corner.
Anyway, I will give the following guidance:
1. 62 Maris (left) - bought raw in a big lot (there is a larger scan on the mail call thread when it came in) with some sharp cards
2. 62 Maris (right) - crackout of a PSA 6
3. 61 Mantle - tiniest of surface indentations (I believe pinched between slab halves at PSA) - was PSA 5, later SGC 80, been cracked out in between the pages of a heavy book, under the leg of my desk for two weeks. Indentation seems more faint (borderline microscopic), but I never get slack on Mantle cards from PSA.
4. 62 Mays - bought raw on ebay as NM
5. 62 Brock RC - bought raw on ebay as NM for $49
6. 62 AL HR Ldrs - Has some sort of print flaw, like a line of slightly different red color to the right of crest & left of Maris
7. 62 Mantle AS - Did not cross over in SGC slab (???). Will be cracked out.
8. **** 69 Billy Williams - SCD 7 Grand Prize - to whomever guesses closest on the 7 cards I will submit. ****
Tiebreaker: Guess how many strikeouts Dice-K will have in his next outing. Contest will be closed at gametime of his next start.

Allen - I can't sell that Mantle until it is in the right holder (7 or 8) - thanks for asking though.

Zef - how right you were... These just popped (from the same batches as a few of the stars in the smaller invoice), couple of klunkers (can't believe the 3 Ruth's) - but pretty pleased as they came from lots described as Ex/mt or NM. Also felt the Yaz and Maris HR King were likely 6's, but had a shot at 7's:
