'68 Rose and Bench rookie pick up!

Went to the Scottsboro Al show today and got two low grades I had been wanting from a friend of mine. A little rough but I don't care about that and the price was unbeatable.

I know you said the cards are a little rough, but it really looks like that Rose is short side to side, like someone took an X-Acto knife to it. Have you measured it out?

Take a look at the back of your Bench. There are 2 versions. In the first line of the bio the word “the” either has a full h or is truncated looking like an n. The latter is scarcer but I have not heard if any premium attaches to it.

Congrats on your pick ups

Oh It's clearly trimmed but that is why it was $5.
