Fist Full of Stars Back From PSA

We just got back a nice batch of cards from PSA this week.  Mantle, Cobb, Mathewson, Aaron, Mays, Banks, Williams, Gehrig and some more Mantle.  None of the cards were super high grades or anything, just decent mid to low grade star cards from a recent collection we purchased.  The thing that always gets you though, is having 10 Mantles hit you at once.  All from the 50s, both Topps and Bowman.  The highest grade we received on any Mantle was a PSA 6 on a 1956 Topps. 











All Mantles aside, we had a handful of Hank Aarons, a Willie Mays, a Lou Gehrig, Ernie Banks, Christy Mathewson and one beat up Cobb.  The Cobb is a T206 with a Polar Bear back, and it looks like it was "loved" pretty hard over it's 100+ years on this earth, leaving us with it only being Authenticated.  The Gehrig card is pretty cool regardless of getting a PSA 1, simply because we don't see 1933 DeLong cards come through the door too often which makes it the only 1933 DeLong we currently have.

Well, we have a couple batches of cards still out with PSA and are adding higher level singles daily right now.  So keep checking back, you never know what we are going to get in.
