Thank you all for the comments feedback! Regarding scans - I plan to load up into a registry somewhere (most likely SGCs) but that (obviously) will take some time in listing and scan load. Right now they're logged and checked off in an Excel Spreadsheet - sorting through any dupes. What you may see up on the BST or in eBay are those and others looking to sell.
Quick hits:
- Set has nothing really difficult as far as backs (IE: Lenox, Uzit, Drum, etc)
- I was more focused on eye appeal and grading out 3 or higher.
- Several Sovereign 460's, assorted mid-level tougher backs like Tolstoi.
- First HOF was Johnson Portrait (I think the best looking card in the set).
- Worst looking card IMO - probably Spike Shannon (hold that up against the detail of a Willis or Rucker Portrait is like comparing "Stewie" from Family Guy Cartoon to an art mural)
- The Green Cobb (PSA3) was one of the last aquisitions.
- Toughest SL'er was Cranston.
- Best buy were several common raws in the $20 range that graded out 4 or better
- Worst was any common 5 for $125 or more
- SL'ers Paige and Manion look too much alike - bought one thinking the other just looking at the thumbnail pic once. Mr. Harris was then kind enough to trade with me for one I needed
- Hardest common to get in a decent grade was Phelps for some reason - could find enough of them, just always in overpriced BINs
Thanks again!
