Latest Collection Buys

Well, I was updating my webpage tonight and documenting some of my recent buys, and thought I would share them with you if anyone gives a rip. The cards came from two collections. The first collection was some high grade complete sets from '70 bb, '71 fb and '72 fb. I think there are some great grading candidates in these sets, but centering is a bit of an issue. I'm not real familiar with the football cards so if anyone has any advice for me, it would be appreciated.

The second collection was a few thousand cards from '68 to '74. Not real high grade, but some good cards nonetheless. Anyway, hope you enjoy the pics.

    Your scanner is making the cards look like refractors.

    hmm, something happened when I resized the pics. The original scans look good. I'll try to figure it out. Thanks

    very nice cards. Will you be subbing them?
  • bbcemporiumbbcemporium Posts: 684 ✭✭✭
    I think I may sub some of the 70s baseball, but I'm not sure with the football cards. As stated before, I'd appreciate some input on the football cards.

    IMO the Sayers shouldn't be submitted - it will get an OC qualifier and grading won't add value to that card. The Bradshaw is worth submitting even though it will get a qualifier.
    I don't know enough about the Spurrier's price to say whether it should be graded even though it will get a qualifier.
    I can't tell how sharp the Namath's corners are or whether the bottom edge has problems, so I can't estimate its grade.
    Everything else from the football looks to be PSA 8 or higher and definitely worth submitting.

    nice cards!!

    I could use one of those 71 Munsons and a Ryan if you got any. Your worst condition ones would be sufficient

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
