***OPINIONS WANTED...EVEN POINTLESS, NOT WELL THOUGHT OUT ONES***

I have three slots for Bobby's submission. One 'should' be taken up by cracking out my PSA 8 ST 1968 Willie Mays and wiping away the schmutz, so that leaves two slots to fill. As a little insight, I'm not planning on selling anything, but it really is all about value, because the way this last year has went, I am never more than 5 minutes away from having to sell everything.

Here are my candidates:

1956 'Hammerin' Hank' - WYSIWYG. Overall pretty decent, but the corners are bumpity.

1972 'Dr. J.' Rookie - Crap! Knew the top left corner was bumped, but just realized the lower left corner has a light crease...so it's low grade. Ugh!!

1980 'The Great One' - really sweet overall, but is the top to bottom centering a killjoy??

1968 Johnny Bench Rookie - it looks awesome, but man, when you examine the scans, things pop up. A real tough call.

Two 1971 Munsons, One Plate - either fits nicely into anyone's complete set, but would one of them grade high enough to make the $50 to PSA a good move?

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
