SOLD: SGC 6 ´52T Jackie Robinson, centered and bold !!

[ZiggerZagger]

--Card is Sold to a great new home. Thanks to all for the interest--

Hi all--

A bit suprised this one is leaving the collection, but making this wonderful SGC 6 52T Jackie Robinson available to the group. This was a 2014 purchase from the BST, and thought it was fitting to bring it here first. Took the better part of 2 years to find a copy that was well-centered, and was grateful to find this one. I reholdered the card with SGC last year, and have included the original and new scans here. Centering is outstanding for the issue, and the colors are absolutlely blazing in-hand.

For anyone who knows this issue, centering is everything. Nearly all copies have a diamond cut at the top border, but how severe that is varies widely. Many pull off-center to both the Top/Bottom as well as Left/Right. The better-centered copies bring big premiums up as you'll see in the PSA/SGC sales data. Trying to come in on the good side of fair here, asking $18.5k OBO for this unusual copy.

Priority is an outright sale, but would consider these cards in PSA in the stated grade range, with cash making up the fair difference in either direction:

1915 Cracker Jack: Walter Johnson, Honus Wagner (PSA 2-3)
1932 US Caramel: Lou Gehrig (PSA 4-5)
1933 DeLong: Lou Gehrig (PSA 3-5)
1933 Goudey: Babe Ruth #'s 53, 144, 149 (PSA 4-5)
1935 Nat'l Chicle: B.Nagurski (PSA 3-4)

Sale includes careful Overnight Shipping at my expense. Can discuss all payment methods via PM.

Please PM with interest or questions. Enjoy!
