I have 10 card submission I need to get out today, and I have chosen 7 cards for it so far. I have 5 lower grade contenders for the last 3 spots.

NEW PLAN:
Please let me know what you think all 5 will grade.

fattymacs · September 1, 2008 11:53PM

Jackie Robinson 2-3
Frank Robinson 3-4
Wilt Chamberlain 4OC

I vote for:

Jackie Robinson
Frank Robinson
Mickey Mantle & Aaron (any thing Mantle seems to sell)

You have in effect answered your own question.

Pafko 1
Aaron / Mantle 4

I guessed the others above.

If you ever plan on reselling, the Pafko in a 1 or 2 would probably get about twice as much money slabbed as it would raw. For a personal collection, I would say the Jackie and Frank.

Thanks Rob.

Just so everyone knows, I am not looking to send in the 3 highest grades. If the 1957 Frank Robinson Brings $50 in PSA 4, and the 1952 Pafko in PSA 1 brings $75 to $100, I will send in the Pafko.

Hi Nick,

I'd go with these (JMHO):

Andy Pafko * PSA 1 * $100-$150 (red back) ... a tad less for a (black back)
Jackie Robinson * PSA 3 * $75
Mickey Mantle & Aaron * PSA 4 * $70

whereas, the Robinson in PSA 4 would only bring about $50;
and the Chamberlain in PSA 4OC would net around $50 also.

plus, the Pafko might yield a 2? you never know!

The 3 cards I originally picked, were the most appealing to me ( I don't have a clue of any of the cards value w/o checking VCP). I'm thinking of putting a for-sale sub together and I'm kinda stumped myself.

Pafko- 2
Jackie Robinson- 3
Frank Robinson- 4
Aaron/Mantle- 5
Wilt- 5oc

NEW PLAN:

Quit wasting your money and buy more Emmitt cards that you will just send me.

CDsNuts · September 2, 2008 1:55AM

1,2,3,3,3

RonBurgundy · September 2, 2008 3:23AM

I would send in these 3:

Jackie Robinson - 3
Mantle/Aaron - 4
Chamberlain - 3, due to centering.

The others:

Pafko - 1
F. Robinson - 2/3.

To put a finish on this uninteresting saga, I ended up choosing the 1952 Pafko, the 1954 Jackie Robinson, and 1958 Mantle/Aaron combo as the last 3 for my submission. Thanks to all who helped.

jswieton · September 2, 2008 1:36PM

They are all very nice cards. I think the Wilt has a chance at a 5 or 6oc.

I love looking at cards like this. That Pafko is just a great card in my opinion. I remember in my teens always wanting the Pafko, the Mantle, and the Mathews from that set. Great cards Nick!
