Judge DredThe job offered would be a dream job. Could you imagine being able to handle that material?
First off, I'd never qualify because the job description calls for the qualified employee to have advanced experience in the grading of vintage card issues. To be quite honest I think I can hold my own in grading but I don't have the "experience" because I've never graded for a reputable grading service in the past.
Second off, I couldn't imagine being responsible for reviewing raw consignments for possible grading, writing and cataloging auction lots because some of the material might never leave my office after it "never arrived."
Wow, that would be a dream job. I'd almost consider doing it for free.
Bill, the item description written below is in jest. It's not meant to offend you by demeaning or belittling this thread (which you have started). I will understand if you happen to delete it. This is just my way of trying to bring some humor to this board regarding a subject that has been recently and frequently posted about.
ITEM DESCRIPTION LOT: 4377
Scarce Hughie Jennings caricature post card distributed in 1907 by the famed Howard M. Taylor company. This unique example was postally cancelled in Detroit on October 12, 1907, the day the Cubs won the final 1907 World Series game at the Tigers famed Bennett Park. The post card was signed/initialed by TC. This item has been extensively and forensically examined by the Postally Used Authentication Service (PUAS) and the company of DUNN, UMBRECHT, MADISON and Associates (DUMASS). It has been determined that this post card was in Ty Cobb's hip pocket in his final at bat of the series, therefore it is being sold as "game used". It's not often that a game used post card becomes available to the public. Don't miss your opportunity to own a truly rare piece of baseball history.
