That is by far the nicest 1.5 I've ever seen. If you're thinking that you can get a great card cheap,be aware that he is charging much more that a 1.5 is worth. So in the end you will be buying the card not the holder, but you will also be paying for the card, not the holder.

No I am not interested in the card just blows my mind that it is graded a 1.5.

very tiny spec of paper loss. One of those cards where the eye appeal exceeds the technical grade. There are many cards out there like this particularly in T206 and Old Judge. Frequently these cards will sell for far more than a card with the typical eye appeal of such a low grade card.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man ... a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge.

This is the dimension of imagination. You unlock this door with the key of imagination. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… the Zone 91.

People have different opinions on cards that have been "inked" or marked. Personally, I wouldn't pay anything substancial for this card and all its above-intrinsic value has been sucked out due to the back stamp. That said I agree the seller is looking for a relatively high price for it.

One last point what the heck are you doing up at 4:30 am putting comments on this board, you are way more into things than I am. Assuming EST.

When summer is almost near and it nice and warm and sunny outside I rather wake up early and enjoy the most of it as I possible can. The weather here sucks 7 months (October-April) a year and the nice weather just started last week. Yes I am on Eastern time. I am also on vacation for the next few months since the work I do is threw the local university and the classes end in May...I usually only start back in September. I do not like working the summer semester because they over work you way to much since they are way shorter. I work overtime in the winter months to compensate.

I will most likely go fishing later today at my friends cottage and have a BBQ....hmmmm ribs with home made sweet potato french fries!!! We can listen to the baseball game on the radio on his boat when there is a afternoon game I mean.

wow even with the stamp, I would say that's a sgc 40 at least

I hear ya! Here in Ottawa we've had summer-like temps for a couple weeks now. But I'm glued to the TV watching the Stanley Cup playoffs each night. So this is what being a hockey fan in LA must feel like.

Yeah I understand you every evening I watch at least one of the hockey games....mostly Ottawa betting the crap out of my Montreal Canadians...ah well my grandmother is a HUGE Sens fan so I am some what OK with it!!! I have also always loved the Pittsburgh Penguins (since 1989) so keeping a eye on those games also....oh yes and the Detroit Red Wings as well.

I think cards like this can present some bargains for those who really like a clean front, but cannot afford them.
