    Really cool seeing that THE CATCH Mays card. I've worn that glove!!! My former neighbor, the late Don Liddle, threw the pitch and he and May's were good friends for a good many years. He gave Don the glove and some other really nice stuff. Used to sit and listen to him talk about being in the big leagues and was always completely in awe, even though he didn't have a long career. I miss Don..he was a very very nice guy.
    His son and Cooperstown have some kind of agreement for the glove to be on display now....but man...and I still get goosebumps... I've actually caught an official major league Baseball,thrown over my shoulder by an honest to goodness,bonafide Major League pitcher, in THE GLOVE that Mays made THE CATCH with. AWESOME doesn't begin to describe the feeling.

    Hey man you might want to look into it but I heard that PSA grades easy on vintage miscut cards. I honestly don't know how true that is but it might be worth trying to get a couple of the miscut ones graded by PSA to see if it gets a higher grade.

    This was an epic pickup! It always sucks to see any card shop close. I still walk past what used to be neighborhood baseball card shop that I used to frequent as a kid. Still makes me feel some sort of way even though it was a dinky little place. I picked up the 1985 Topps Kirby Puckett rookie card there (poorly centered) for $18.

    This is just a note; but I’ve had some trouble in the recent past subbing cards that have been in the screw down holders for too long with PSA. They tend to get altered stock but I’ve had some that got through in grading. This happens when there is no noticeable difference in appearance on the card. If they’ve been smashed a little you can run into trouble. SGC isn’t as strict with these in my experience. Just a thing to keep in mind for the 57 Mantle.

      The reason “old men” buy cards like this is cuz they’re truly rare cards of all time greats. MANY true collectors pass vintage collecting on to their children. Basically people with money typically buy vintage. People that don’t know shit about shit buy modern. The only new cards worth much of anything are so incredibly hard to get, it’s not even worth buying the boxes in an attempt to get them. I’d rather have 6 creased Mickey Mantle’s than a box of 2021 Prizm any sport.
