Thanks everyone. Does anyone do group submissions on here to PSA? My membership expired in February. Contemplating renewing......

I do, but for cards of that value, they won't be eligible under the monthly special. They are valued too high. You would need to piggyback under someone's "re-up" special or pay a higher fee.

I would recommend sending them in as quickly as possible just in case they are not determined to be authentic. In a worst case scenario assuming you paid PayPal goods you can file a dispute and get your money back.

But from the scans they look good to me.

Received the cards yesterday and I am reassured more that they are authentic. Color, feel, and smell all accurate to what I currently have. Will send in for grading and update when I get them back. Thanks all!

Long overdue update with grades....

I love the smell of vintage cards, but I have never used it in determining authenticity.....I would have to believe that the unique smell many vintage cards exhibit is one of the few things counterfeiters have yet to master.

One of the first things I do when I have a card in hand is to smell it as a check. I like to think it's a pretty accurate measure.
