My Del Crandall card arrived today. I don't know grading very well seeing as this card only graded a 5.
OC and a slight tilt are likely the killers I assume?

Probably a hard to see surface wrinkle on the back. Card looks like a 6-7 to me.

John, I have twisted, angled this card enough times under natural light and my magnified light and I still don't see anything?
The back, if anything, looks more mint than the front to me.
The only thing I was able to find, was a slight corner touch in the upper right (which I wrote about back some time ago) so maybe under a loupe, with the centering, they decided a 5 was what this card should be graded at?
I also think, despite the slight touch and the centering, this card, under normal circumstances and based on what I have seen and learned, should also be at least a 6 but more of a 7 in my opinion as well.
Sorry about the bad scan. Seems, for some reason, SGC's don't scan as well for me?

Edit: new back scan after re-cleaning my screen

Dale, great card. But, I suspect your scanner does not have the type of scanning element (CCD element) that will enable you to make non-blurry, clear scans of slabbed cards.

Nothing crazy, but a few cool 70s Topps cards I picked up over the weekend. I love Killebrew cards where he's in his batting stance. They should call him "The Logo" like Jerry West.

Nice pickups fellas!
I was a bit more into prewar this collecting season, but 2018 will be back to my roots in post war - really thinking about a bunch of mint stuff from the 70s

Default December Pickups!

I did not make a lot of additions to my collection in 2017, but here are a couple that I picked up this month. The Munson is a card that I have wanted since I first started collecting in 1980, but just never pulled the trigger on one, I just couldn't pass this one up with it's centering!
