That's why I bought it. A great looking card at a fraction of the cost due to a technical flaw that I had to look for to find.

I never buy raw marquee cards but I went for this one:




Got a super deal on it.

Wow, another sweet one. Hope to one day do a Dr. J Topps run. He was THE guy when it came to playground basketball talk as kid in the '70s. I have been on a bit of a graded stuff run for awhile, but have picked up a couple of nice raw lately so I get you in that area. And like the Hull, that is a really great card.

Nice centering. I have a complete nm-mt set but most of the centering is off.

Icee Bears are very cool, and relatively inexpensive.

I'm currently working on that set (raw though). It's a lot of fun. Lacking 44 of 175.

I'm all about the presentation and the price, regardless of slab. The Howe is decently centered and crease-free, which is a bit of a stretch with the deckles, and the price was great. This is my current happy card:



Bought it raw at the National and it just got an 8.

On occasion you see a card and you are owning the sucker even if you overpay a bit:



I saw Boom Boom and hadn't ever seen a nicer 67 so I grabbed it even though my normal wheelhouse is nice 6 or 7 caliber for this set.

I saw him play as well and he became a favorite. That's a wonderful card!
