Opinions on what these might grade?

[Golfcollector]

I just purchased a massive collection of items ranging from autographs, to programs, yearbooks, pins, complete sets from 50's and 60' as well as a wide variety of exhibits, tobacco, caramel, strip cards etc. Most of the collection is mid grade, some nicer some worse but the diversity and size of all of it is quite overwhelming.

I wanted to put out a sample of just a few cards that are not part of sets that I am considering getting graded. I have an enormous list, but for fun, wanted to share a few here to have opinions of those on the board. I have enlarged the scans a bit as this is what I like to do when grading cards myself, as it shows any flaws and makes them that much more obvious.

No PSA 10's to see here that will break any auction records....just want some honest opinions. I might add another post or two of a few more cards as well.

Appreciate the feedback!

Mathewson, Johnson and Young should get a 2.
Lajoie is a 1.

[iwantitiwinit]

I agree with the Matty and Johnson 2-2.5 maybe a bit less if there are holes in them which it looks like there could be, there are at least some indentations.

My guesses:
Mathewson 2
Johnson 3
Lajoie 2(MK)
Young 2(MK)
Clarke 4.5

Mathewson 2.5
Johnson 3
Lajoie 1.5 sgc, Psa 3mk
Young 1.5 sgc, Psa 3mk (could be trimmed tho...top)
Clarke 3.5-4

Matty no higher than a 2
Johnson 2.5
Lajoie 2 with an mk
Young id say authentic. That looks trimmed at the top.
Clarke not sure cracker jacks are tough one to grade. Id say maybe a 3-4

Thanks for the comments, I have a ton more to look through, much of it I will be keeping but I do have some raw cards as well as some graded cards that will likely get first dibs on the message boards before I try other avenues.


Appreciate all the opinions!
