Wanted to Share New Pickup, opinions wanted

Hi, I just wanted to share a great new pickup for me. It is not quite as nice as one of Jim's (Macaube) 10's, but I think it is pretty nice. Is it worthy of sending for a review? I would not crack it. Thanks in advance!

Hope picture comes out this time, sorry.

I see it as an 8

IMO no, but if you feel it is, go for it.

Congratulations on your pickup - very nice card.

Good luck on the bump if you decide to submit.

Looks great. If that was in the Memory Lane auction, I remember seeing it and admiring it along with most of the other things. If you've got the time and money and resources, it's worth a shot. I personally am often surprised at how the grades come out. You can get surprised that they come out better and worse. 10 This one I thought looked nice but was a little surprised it got a 10. Centering and corners look similar to yours. Don't want to get your hopes up for a 10 which I don't think would happen but a bump is certainly possible if you ask me. If you get them on the right Thursday, it can be a 10 or on the wrong Tuesday, it can be an 8. So if you don't mind playing the game, have at it.

Love the card, don't think it will bump though.

This was not the one in Memory lane Auction. IMO this was nicer because that one had a long print mark on left side of card. Like I always say "To be rich instead of good looking".

I will probably go with the concensus of the people on here, but can anyone point out to me why they do not think it would get a bump. I am trying to get a better handle on what to look for when it come to deciding on whether or not to send cards in. Thanks for help and advice.

I think it's nice and I like it as much as or better than my 8, from the scan it looks like the top right corner might hold you back from a 9 - but that's my bad eyes looking at your scan.

Nothing wrong with having that card in an 8, if you don't like it you have my address. Congrats on a nice addition!
