Rock on Lothar!

The thought of phatty in a scrapple-induced frenzy really scares me -- please aconte, pay the fat one in some other way!

Yank is correct, they have fallen off the face of the earth.

A search of eBAY revealed a grand total of 24 cards. I found it interesting how many different holders that there were...

in their most recent, they have included subgrades...and a 6 for corners can still get you a 7 final grade

An earlier version is a butt-ugly "blue brick" without subgrades (I have one of these and can honestly say that it is the worst looking holder EVER)

Even earlier designs include:

I agree with the grade on the Boog Powell 71 card. Its a solid 7. I agree with you about the Blue monstrosity holder they used in the past. BUTTT ugly!

All I can say is that from MY experience, i would definitely trust CSA over all of the other grading services sans the big three (PSA,SGC,BGS). I guess I would have to putthem in the middle somewhere.

soltrick, phatty was just kidding about all the name-calling...it’s just that phatty had something bad happen this last weekend and is still upset. after arriving back from a brief excursion to guadalajara, phatty noticed that salami, phatty’s new pet beaver had chewed the lock off of phatty’s meat freezer and had ravaged the contents. phatty got mad and told salami that he had better get his a$$ out of the freezer or he was going to end up as shish-kabobs. Phatty really regretted what he had said and in hindsight, knew that he had spoken rashly...phatty was in much more of a fish and white wine mood that particular evening.

here’s a picture of that rascal salami:
