T3 Turkey Red Gallery

Jay, all of the Harry Mack's "Brooklyn & Chicago" have the same flip "Brooklyn",
the one's that only state "Brooklyn" have no team designation on the flip

Here's a couple more that I submitted which also just state "Brooklyn"

That seems like a strange way for them to do things, but that statement is true for a lot of what PSA does I guess. Also, interesting that all 3 of those got the same grade of 4 when there appear to be some significant differences in the condition of each card, especially the last one you posted.

Only have a Brooklyn, still looking for the other variation.

Interesting that the flip for your Brooklyn and Chicago variation has them both listed. I guess PSA changed what they were putting on the flip sometime after Jay had submitted his. This makes more sense.

Glad they corrected it.
Haven't had a T3 come back from PSA in awhile, not sure if they even grade them now w/ their overload lately.
& when they come back to grading them, I'm sure the price will be steep.
SGC currently charges $100 to grade cabinet size cards & when PSA is ready it will probably be for more.

Thanks Jay (t206kid)! Note: the colors appear shifted a little to blue in this scan. This is a result of scanning a slabbed card. Ungraded cards scan beautifully with true colors, but I still can't figure out how to accurately represent a slabbed card in my scans. PVC 6"x9" top loaders are even more bluish, the cards look just plain bad in them. Part of cracking out my T3's is so that I can see what their true colors actually look like. I need acrylic top loaders!!


Update: after I posted this, I did a little research into absorption spectra of PVC. Lower frequency light (red end of visible spectrum) is more readily absorbed than higher frequency. So I increased red in the color balance, and the card actually looks a lot more true to life now. Here is the result. Sorry for the double post, but I thought this might help someone now or in the future. FYI, acrylic has wonderfully flat and low absorption across visible wavelengths, which is why it's so popular. Polycarbonate is another good choice, a lot tougher than acrylic though not quite as optically clear. Does anyone know what polymer is used by PSA for their holders? Whatever it is, it needs to be tough enough to the survive the ultrasonic welding process.

Love the colors on these two.

Amby…one of my nicer ones. Tough grade even though an EX
