December pickup thread

[Luke]

Since we're on the subject:
When you want to cross a card over to another grading company, do you send it in the other company's holder, or crack it out? If I were to send this card into SGC in the PSA slab, do you think SGC would be more likely to give it a qualifier just because PSA did?

SGC doesn't give qualifiers, and I usually leave the card in the holder.

If you've cracked it out already, it can't be submitted as a crossover -- the second TPG has no proof that it's the same card that the first TPG had graded. Also, when you submit for crossover, you can specify a minimum grade that you'll accept for the crossover -- if the second TPG doesn't feel it merits that grade then they won't crack it out of the first TPG's holder. (that's for PSA at least, I haven't looked into SGC policies for crossover.)

And as someone else mentioned, SGC doesn't use qualifiers -- they just knock down the overall grade, sometimes significantly.

I recently picked up a boatload of 1933 Goudeys including #198 Irving Burns.

I have seen plenty of 33 Goudey cards that have significant bleeding through the back, but nothing like this one...is there something more to this card?

Thanks - Rob

Jim, congrats on some beautiful OJs, are you collecting a Western Association subset? If not, that would be a great start.

Jeremy, nice Werrick, I like the jersey modification/update to St. Paul. What subset does this complete for you?

Rhett, great card and congrats. Your tireless efforts no doubt helped you land that card.

Nice looking 53 Bowman Mantle Tony. Also one of my favorite post war cards.

Hey thanks for this one Steve

Joe- Just emailed you... This is a OJ type Nashville subset representing players that played in Nashville in 1885 and 1886 and later played for teams represented in the OJ set from 1887-1890.
