Contest Card

Cards average Ex/Mt and the grade is pretty consistent throughout. There are a few that are NM and maybe one or two that are EX+++. As you can see, there are a couple of HOFers, minor stars, some team cards and a contest card. I've scanned the first 6 and last 6 cards in the lot to give you an idea of condition.

Rules:

• No minimum bid
• Increments must end in $.88. (Example $3.88, $12.88, $23.88, etc.)
• Ends Wednesday night 10/27 9:00 PM CST (bids up to and including 9:00 are good; anything with a time stamp of 9:01 or later will not be valid)
• I will cover the shipping
• Payment is to be made to the charity of winning bidder's choice, but limited to the following 5: Disabled American Veterans (DAV), Wounded Warrior Project, Shriner's Children's Hospital, St. Jude's Children's Hospital, ASPCA (If you need a link to donate, just let me know).
• Winning bidder must screenshot a confirmation of their donation and email it to me
• Cards will be shipped upon email confirmation
