The 6 T218’s, the T220, the T68 Stonewall, the T205 Doolan, and the Willie Mays.

Though this would certainly be an unprofitable endeavor, those are the 10 coolest in my book.

The Mays doesn’t look to be all that pristine. Maybe a mid-grade item? If so, you can buy these in mid grade for pretty cheap, likely around the amount of the grading fees.

So I wouldn’t be inclined to grade this one.

Hence, “unprofitable endeavor”

Thank you everyone for your responses so far. To address one point made, I am not concerned about whether or not grading them would be profitable. I’m sure there are some cards where I could find them already graded in better condition.

If you aren't looking to sell them (other than the space card), why are you worried about having them graded at all? Keep them as is and use the $100-$200+ you save on grading fees to acquire more cards you like?

The Mays is also not complete. The other half is missing so I wouldn't grade that one myself for this reason. I would search out a complete one instead and sell of this half at that time.
