Those are some nice looking cards. Where did you get them? Ebay? Auction house? I really need to get a few new cards this thread is making me sad.

Dave,

TripleSSS Sportscards bought the 1957 Topps "Lionel Carter" set from a Mastro Auction last year. They sold a group of them to sgcman and I was able to get a few of them. The remainder of the set has suffered a different fate that I won't mention here.

I picked this up a year or so ago. I posted a pic a while back.

Arny, That is a great looking Campy. It is hard to tell from the scan but if the two left corners are strong I would just crack it out and try for a straight 8.

ColleSystem what is the deal with the Aaron? It looks to good to be a 5. Maybe a bach wrinkle?

Dave, it has beautiful centering and the corners are pretty darn good. But, on the back (at the bottom) it looks like someone took their fingernail and tried to seperate the top 'layer' from the bottom 'layer' of the card and is lifted up just a bit.

I wonder if I should crack it and sit something on it for awhile to smooth that out to resubmit. Without that, it would be a straight 8 for sure. What's an 8 go for?
