Jason I used to have that one in a substantially higher grade. I sold it to another board member. One of the worst card-selling decisions I made...
BTW, they aren't hand cut; PSA pulled that idea out their @$$.

Absolutely -- thank you for making that point!! Not hand cut! The classification of the card is all wrong as well, and I think you may have contributed to a great Net54 thread many years ago about this issue. If memory serves it should more accurately be called a 1968 Crack Tarjeton Autografiadas, or something like that. Please excuse any sloppiness there! This is my other example up close -- was it yours? I believe it's still the highest graded PSA example. Still kind of like the PSA 1 better with respect to color...

My recollection was that it was SGC slabbed and higher grade. It was nice.
Crack is the mfg, no set name on the packaging (like 1968 Topps is just Topps). This particular format of card is called "photos autografiadas" on the wrapper. I guess I would label it "1968 Crack Photos Autografiadas" if I was the god of TPG. The book Dificiles Eran Las De Antes by Rafael Bitran and Francisco Chiappini is the go-to book on Argentinean futbol issues; that's where I got my info. It was available on Amazon years ago.

Pele 1958 Os Desportos em Todo o Mundo
I found this set of Brazilian postcards on ebay a few weeks ago and pulled the trigger without knowing anything about them. After some research, I was able to determine that they were printed in Brazil in December, 1958, to celebrate the team's World Cup victory earlier that year. These are incredibly rare, and I think given time this could be considered Pele's most desirable rookie card.

Fantastic PC! My modest recent acquisitions
I borrowed the seller's scan on this tinnie; it has a reflective gold edge that my scanner just hates with a vengeance. Yeah it is a little...weathered?

Wow, those are some amazing cards. I'm not sure why, but that Black Pearl card has always been really attractive to me.
My own collection is much more modest. |

I was lucky enough to have Pele sign these 2 for me back in 2019 when I wrote to him in Brazil. It took around 3 months for him to respond.
