Thanks for the thoughtful response. It is funny, I guess some things really are in the eye of the beholder. Originally I started collecting PSA because I thought SGC cases looked and felt cheap. I know it is a super-dumb thing, but I can't stand the perforated edge of the SGC label.

I will say again though that for this card you are 100% correct in saying it looks beautiful in this holder. Unfortunately I am one for consistency so I want it to be like its friends in PSA cases.

Are all those cards in your sig link yours? If so, care to part with a '51 Mantle?

Thanks again.

Thanks, yep that is my collection in the sig. I'm actually seeking more 51B Micks but they are hard to find with even decent centering and no vertical print lines.

I totally agree the perforated label and print quality of the label is the Achilles of the SGC holder.

Beautiful stuff. That Mantle is on my list. The '48/49 Leaf Satchel Paige has to take priority though. If I can ever find one.

Ah, just sold mine a couple months ago to help land a new card. Was a dead centered example with focus. I miss it but am far more of a Mantle guy.

Brian: Beautiful card by the way. I have my Jackie in the same grade.
MattyC; no way your getting my 51 Mick out of my bare hands. LOL! We all know Matty has beautiful cards and taste.

Brian: i am also on the Rookie card quest, and have many cards your either active or looking for, hope our sides dont meet up as i been busy placing bids, sure dont wanna raise the roof.

I have a few people I try not to cross in the market. PM me if you'd like to be included. In the interim all I really am looking at is the Leaf component of the set. I love Leaf. I'm going after the Doby in a 6 that's ending in a few days.

Thanks for the kind words on the card. I am pleased.

I was going after all 4 as the seller said would wait for the weekend before selling them off individually...guess not!..
