Do either these two 1954's have a shot at a 9?

[philliesfan]

I am getting a sub ready and was wondering if anyone feels either of these two cards could get a 9.......two 10's would be nice though. The backs are just as nice as the fronts. No stains on the 54 Bowman and no chippng on the Topps.

Correct, in the future please do keep it in the proper section of the forum. There is a post war side. I don't know about the cards but good luck. thanks

Friday Night pass? Not sure what you mean.
Thanks, Robert

Oops sorry got it. I will be more careful in the future.
Thanks again,

8 or 8.5 in Murray.
5 on Rosen. There appears to be a surface wrinkle below the Indiana logo to the left.

Those are great cards. I would just store them in a penny sleeve and a top loader. You could always look at them with a ruler and a loupe to see if they are in mint.

Well I checked and it is not a surface wrinkle on the card. I scanned it while in a card saver and the mark is a heavy scratch on the card saver.

Probably not, the UR corner on Murray and LR corner on Rosen may have "too much" wear/problems to get a 9, they are both nice cards though.

I noticed the same thing right away. You could put them in a semi rigid and write "8.75" in the upper right with a sharpie. I hear quarter grades are coming next to extend the life of tpg's.
