They weren't glued into albums. The thought is that they may have been issued with albums so that they could be glued in. I'd say that the vast majority of mine don't have any glue damage. I find the glue issue more prevalant on the 64s and 66s than I do on the earlier issues. It wouldn't surprise me if they were issued in a different manner.

Was reviewing this thread and saw this post. I recently read an article that says the Venezuelan cards weren't issued with albums until 1964. So 1959, 60 and 62 should have less issues with glue damage.

Also I noticed a lot of my Venies haven't been shown here yet. Here are some more of my 64's.

Thanks, that McCovey was love at first sight! I forgot to mention the 64 Lolich is a RC.

Wow, there is some definite inconsistency in low grades with PSA. I love that the Scott is a 2, Bell is 2.5 and Williams is a 1.

I agree. Or that the Scott and the McCovey are both 2's. The McCovey is crease free. Still stunned by that grade, but it allowed me to steal that card on ebay

Edit to add: the Torrez RC, mccarver and cleon jones are all the first copy of each graded by PSA. The Amaro 1.5 is the highest graded ("pop 1, none higher"). I love the Hart.
