July 2009 Pick Up Thread
I apologize for starting a day early, hope no one minds. A few additions to my T206 set. I believe this puts me at 40 more to go minus the Big 6 with only one common left, the elusive Bill Malarkey!
Hope everyone is enjoying the summer!
Best,
Scott

Got to love those butt shots. Sounds like a thread to me.

Re: July 2009 Pick Up Thread
Folks,
I know everyone has heard this too much, but this is one card that was seriously undergraded. I'm fortunate, because I bought this as a EX (5) card. But if I had sent this in, I'd be shaking my head. Back in the early 90s when I collected a lot, the only question on this card would be whether the dealer called it Mint or Nr.Mt-Mt...clearly, this PSA grader-kid was suffering from acute refractor blindness...
Cheers,
Blair

Blair, the lower left corner looks like hamburger. Or maybe that's left overs from the Cheeto munching grader

Hey Jay,
When you look at this card, the other 3 corners are razor/pinpoint sharp. The lower left is the only one that isn't perfect (but it still appears to come to a nice point). I own a lot of worse "7s" and a couple worse "8s" from both PSA and SGC.
Good thing the grader wasn't drinking his morning... or having a buttery snack...
Cheers,
Blair

I was just kidding about the hamburger comment. That is a sweet CJ in any case. Would seem to be a perfect candidate for resub unless there is a hidden micro crease you aren't seening. SGC is great at finding those.

that card never struck me as being a pic of Wagner. The nose is way too small

Thanks Jay - that is my thought too! Since it is for my long-term collection, I'm just real happy to have such a sharp looking card for a "5" price.
All the best,
Blair

That T200 presents really well, Brian!
