Posted By: <b>Troy</b><p>I would bid 85 and hope I get it for less. I got a similiar card for 72 after shipping but it was graded.

Posted By: <b>barry arnold</b><p>hi Bob<br /><br />hope you get to feeling better.<br /><br />i note a large crease across the card.<br />i also note its being off center.<br />some minors 'spots' here and there.<br />the colors are bright and the back is quite clean.<br />presents well.<br />probably an sgc 40 or 30--the corners help lean me toward the 40.<br />i'd guess $80 or so.<br /><br />all the best,<br /><br />barry

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>...the top border looks slanted to me in a way that the bottom doesn't. I'm not saying it is trimmed, but if the card would otherwise grade a VG with that crease and be worth up to, say $100-$120, I would apply a discount because it is raw with a questionable top border. I would be uncomfortable paying more than $60 for that card, and would much prefer $40-$50.

Posted By: <b>Bob S</b><p>Thanks, guys.<br /><br />I got $41, which says to me I've got to get my vintage stuff slabbed or accept about 50% (Not to mention the 20% consignment cost).<br /><br />You verified my estimate (fear).<br /><br />Thanks, again, very much.<br /><br />Bob

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>a couple years ago that was a $30-$40 card all the time on eBay, its a bit more now but $40 its too bad. The crease kills the value.
