A few cards for my 1974 and 1982 Kellogg's sets...
Clear Skies, Mark
Collecting PSA graded Steve Young, Marcus Allen, Bret Saberhagen and 1980s Topps Cards. Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.
Another bunch of awsome cards. On my favorite thread, thanks for the pics guys.

My understanding is the PSA graders do not have knowledge who owns a paticular item, when they are grading that item. I guess are you saying otherwise? Pleeeeeeze "fill me in"!
TIA

Yup, and none of the coaches know who the kids are on the Pee-Wee team while they're making their picks, wink wink.
Thanks Stone. I did not pull the Koufax redemption. It was a raw card purchase years ago off of eBay and I finally got around to submitting it.
Here are some new ones in yesterday -- getting seriously close to finishing this set now in PSA 8/9. The second set is also getting closer to completion. The second set is more of a mix of grades but eventually would like it to be an 8 or better set as well.
Looking for a Glen Rice Inkredible and Alex Rodriguez cards
I got the Tetley and Weis Market discs in the mail today. I've been looking for these for quite some time, now. I already had the Our Own Disc, but I thought I'd include it here, too.
I'm pretty pumped about these, as they're really tough to find, and they more or less fell in my lap. A fellow Will Clark collector emailed me out of the blue last week, asking if I needed anything from his list. He had maybe 500 cards, probably fewer. It's pretty rare for me to find anything I need from another collector's list, but this guy had several. I also picked up this Upper Deck Iooss Jumbo card from the same guy. It's too bad he had to part with them, but he can be sure they will be well loved by their new owner!
The Iooss Jumbo is in pretty rough shape, but it's the only one I've ever seen, so I'm just fine with that. I think these jumbo cards may have been distributed at Wal-Mart, but I'm not sure how. Does anyone know?
Here's the standard size Iooss, if you're curious.
These cards may not be as valuable as many in this thread, but I've never seen them before, so they're very proud additions to my collection.
A good mail day today....plus add the Star Wars stamps that came out today and it was pretty cool overall.
My 6th different 2001 Showcase and my 3rd different 3 color of the same. From a new ebay seller with no photo....meaning priced quite fairly.
Didn't have a raw one so was happy to win this for $5.00.

They are not expensive. They are just difficult to find. There was one seller on eBay that had a couple of sets. In addition, I recall seeing one on Scottsdalecards website. You can pick up a set (50 cards) for anywhere between $20 - $80. Here is a link to my set. Elvis - Monty The password in superfly. Just double click on the image of the pack to start viewing them.
FYI - In 1978, Monty also made sets for the Beatles, Kiss and the Bee Gees.
Mike -- I sure hope that '62 Mays isn't in anything higher that a PSA 6 holder: lots of snow, wear on both the top & bottom right, and what looks like a surface scuff on the bottom of the card on his thigh and running into "S.F. Giants". (But I bet it's an "8"...)
I just picked-up a nice 7 at the beginning of May (image is on p. 294 of this thread...)
While the Chris Vines autograph is completely illegible, I think it has kind of a regal coolness about it, like the monograms of European royalty in centuries past.
Here's the three from my March special submission. The Seaver is 1/1 and is the only Canadian Kellogg's card graded. Actually, I haven't seen these available before. There is no number, even though PSA lumped it into the US Kellogg's numbered set for that year. Anyone else have one from this set?

I am resubmitting it though - I think it has a 50% chance at a 7 given the new leniency with snow (so worth a shot). I saw your 7 - very nice ( I was an underbidder).
Just got a new scanner. Thought I'd share my favorite card. (It said if you're proud...) It's my favorite card because, it was only released in Canada with the 85 Leaf set. It's a Perez DK. It's an uncorrected error card (his name is spelled wrong on the back). It was the first card I got back from PSA. It's the only one graded by PSA. And, of course, Stieb was one of my fave players back in the day.

I just got this one in the mail yesterday. It's a card designed to be separated from the 1998 Cotuit Kettleers Handbook and Planner. Will played for Cotuit in the Cape Cod League in the summer of 1983.
I'm not sure if I want to keep it in the calendar or if I should punch it out, but for now it'll stay where it is.

Were we at the same Pee Wee tryouts?

Edit: the black spot near the N in National turned out to be a piece of something in the holder. Never held a venezuelan card before, they feel weird!
That's a good looking Clemente for a Vene card!
Very nice - thanx for sharing

Are these cool or what?
Complete 27 card mint set of 1986 Montreal Canadians Postcards. Interesting, but only one ever graded by PSA (#33 Patrick Roy PSA 1-2).
Do not know if it is tough to locate complete high end sets or not?
Anyone out there have any info on this interesting set?

That Seaver Kellogg's is pretty sweet. Kinda cool you got it to scan like that too.

It is a 6. It is a smudge, not a scuff.
I am resubmitting it though - I think it has a 50% chance at a 7 given the new leniency with snow (so worth a shot). I saw your 7 - very nice ( I was an underbidder).

Sorry about the damage. PSA should rectify that quite easily.
Sweet looking DS's - for 5s they look really nice.
But!!!!
Bob - in the world of 53Bs - this one is tremendous - superb looking 8!
thanx for all the scans guys - I wish I had time to talk about everything I see.

Obviously not in the best of shape, but I love this card from the T218 set...
<< <i>That is a nice T218. It is one of the nicest sets made. Are you working on the set? >>
Yes. I've got about half the set now, mostly raw, but I've been picking up a few graded as well. It IS a beautiful set, and fun one to put together.
The following cards of Procol Harum, Beach Boys and Jimi Hendrix are from the 1968 Lord Neilson set:
(It said if you're proud...)
It's my favorite card because, it was only released in Canada with the 85 Leaf set.
It's a Perez DK.
