Slabbed Reprints

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Chad</b><p>Why does anyone do this? I'm seeing several of the Leland Josh Gibsons for sale on ebay, some of them slabbed by SGC. And they get bids! If I draw some doodles of Babe Ruth on a 3 by 5 inch piece of cardboard, can I get them slabbed by a grading company? The can even stamp "Doodle" on them, as long as they get slabbed. Somebody will buy them, I think. Ach, I'm just crotchety because I got shut out on all the Toleteros' this morning. I guess I'm gnome-ing. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />BTW, thanks to JSP for incluing the Gibson reprint for free with my purchases. That was a small, classy touch to the transaction.

Posted By: <b>Chad</b><p>I was just thinking how much I'd like to have one when--poof!--there it was for free with my order. If I do sell it, my tagline will be, "Want to own the world famous Josh Gibson ROOKIE without spending THOUSANDS of dollars!!!!!!!"<br /><br />That should do it.<br /><br />--Chad
