Grading Opinions Needed

I ripped through a few packs of '78s tonight and ended up pulling what I think are a few blazers. I thought would get some opinions here as these really won't be worth sending in unless they grade high. I've only subbed '78s a couple of times and didn't as well as I would have hoped. Thoughts?

I also picked this up at a shop on Monday. Thoughts on the possible grade for this one?

    Nice cards, I'd say 8's or 9's on the 78's and a 7 for the Rose if it isnt recolored. FYI Rose is a hard card to find centered like that, nice pick up if it grades. John

    If the Rose is recolored I can't find it. Nothing shows on blacklight and edges are clean. When I saw the centering, I had to pick it up.

    The 78s are pretty sharp Don.

    I remember sending some nice vending to Softparade and to my surprise a few came back 10s! So anything's possible.

    I think the Rose looks really nice - I agree on the possible 7.

    Good luck if ya decide to sub it.

    Nice '78s. Question for you, is that snow on the Munson or is the scanner need some windex? My guess is they look like 9's to me but don't be surprised with an 8 thrown in. 6.5 or 7 on the Rose, nice card.

    There is snow on the Munson. Is it common on this card and can it still get a 9 with the snow?

    << <i>There is snow on the Munson. Is it common on this card and can it still get a 9 with the snow? >>



    I'd send it in just because the centering is soo good on it. If it's common on it maybe they will overlook it and spot you a "9".

    Don, that Rose looks great. I think it's an 8.

    everything looks like 8-9ish to me - Hopefully you'll get the nice grader and pop a 10.

    i think the Rose is a perfect example of what the half-point system does for a borderliner. that's a 7.5

    never had much luck with 78s, so i'll keep my yap shut. image

    Am I inventing something that isn't there, or are those some sort of wrinkles? I noticed 'em right off the bat.

    Nope not wrinkles, just dirty scanner and cat hair sticking to the card saver. image

    Thanks for the opinions guys.

    I'd say 9's on the 78's and 7 on the Rose

    I think Jim's right, 9's on the 78's and 7 on the Rose, though I would give it a 7.5.
