Good work Darren! Love the Maris!! Willie and Hank 59s are so cool! Wow- Whitey 52 might be my favorite here!!

Thanks Jason! I agree, the Whitey is such a good looking card! Glad you enjoyed! I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Topps 1953 Whitey Ford - right up my alley. Great design. Great vintage cards all the way around. I would imagine Mays cards (which are already priced high) will skyrocket when he passes. The 1960 Clemente is probably my favorite card of his. Great colors.

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Drew! I agree, the Ford is such a good looking card! The 60 Clemente has great eye appeal (in general, not mine since it has a pencil mark across his shoulders). I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Darren, I'm glad you overall got some grade around what you were expecting! Congrats, my collecting brother! We are clubbies on Whitey Ford's first Topps card! That Willie Mays is a beauty! All great cards! 😊👊

Thanks Mookie! The Fleer Clemente is a fun card to add to the collection. Its always nice when the grades seem reasonable... I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Love the Whitey Ford, '53 Topps! The '59 Mays I'm surprised that didn't grade a bit higher, great looking card. Thanks for sharing your PSA reveal!

Thanks Brian! The Mays was tough, it was super clean, but had bad corners. In general, I was happy with the grades this time. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

@sfisportscards8323 7 ай бұрын

Darren, I think that's why I'm hesitant to send cards to PSA and Beckett. I collect both slabs but I always think they'll forget about my cards due to the long return time, lol. Great cards of great players, really love that '63 Fleer set and really nice '79 Strikeout Leaders card. They all look good in the PSA slab, congrats on the return!

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Sammy! It took forever, but I was happy with the grades. Could have been worse, they could have all come back minimum size requirement... Always a risk sending to PSA. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

@junkfoodjohnny 7 ай бұрын

PSA will never disappoint! Dang, I was really waiting on that Fernando grade. Guess I gotta wait another 4 months. Nice first premiere!

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Ha! Thanks John! Nothing like getting burned on the Valenzuela rookie. It could have been the highlight of the bunch. Upside, it was pack pulled, so if it had gotten the requisite 5 or 6, it would have ruined the reveal. Maybe I should appreciate that it got denied.

Nice set of Hall of Famers in this reveal. Can never go wrong with Mays or Aaron cards. Love the 53 Whitey Ford, from one of my favorite sets. Thanks for sharing.

Some nice cards in there. I didn't know that PSA would grade a card a 1 with a qualifier. In particular, I figured a mark on a card would just make it a 1. Oh well, I guess I need to look at the grading standards again. Thanks for sharing, Darren!

@returntocollecting 5 ай бұрын

Thanks Will. Glad you enjoyed! I agree, a 1 shouldn't require a qualifier, but that just helps bring the value down just a bit more... 😂. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

@Collector.Not.Hoarder 7 ай бұрын

Great reveal, Darren - those vintage are right in my wheelhouse! I love the ‘63 Clemente - such an under appreciated card. Your grades seem pretty accurate - I would definitely be happy with them. Also, I sent a vintage submission back in November, and a 90’s submission in December - my vintage submission is still in “grading”, and my 90’s are currently being shipped back. Seems like vintage always takes longer.

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Tom! Yeah, the vintage cards always take a long time, unless you pay considerably more for the expedited grading. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Awesome vintage cards!! Enjoy your content!! You have a remarkable collection!! Where do you get your cards from? How long have you been collecting to put together such an amazing collection?

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Ken! I buy my raw cards at cards shows and card shops. The majority of my graded cards I bought on eBay or card shows. I sometimes buy from the bigger auction houses. I picked up one card over Facebook. I've been back in to collecting for about 4 years. Been a fun ride so far! I appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching!

Loved this sub!! You got some really nice grades I think.Seemed like PSA was right on with almost all their grades. I have been doing really good with my blind reveal videos as far as accuracy goes. I posted a couple 1960s videos not long ago and will be posting more soon. Keep the great content coming!!

Nice reveal! The '61 Maris for card #2 is fantastic, the '63 Fleer Clemente is great, as is the '53 Ford (that's a strong 2.5 I think). I wish that '59 Aaron did better for you, the VG seemed tough. Thanks for sharing, Darren!

@threeriverscardcollector5962 7 ай бұрын

not too bad! it still shocks me how super slow PSA is, I'm averaging about 4-5 months per submission too lately

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks David! I was happy with the grades, but frustrated by the absurd turnaround time. It almost like they purposely hold the basic submissions back so that you're more likely to pay for expedited next time. Good marketing move, I guess. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

@Stompkin 7 ай бұрын

Great reveal! 59 Aaron looks much better than a 3 for sure. The PSA Modern Sports special I believe starts with 1989, so they aren't going to help you out with the 81 and 83 either, ha! The 80's are officially now the in between era!

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Jeff! So the 80s cards cost like a vintage and get graded as slow as a vintage, but can't be included in a vintage submission... makes sense. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Nice cards! It's funny that the 1960 Clemente is the lowest grade you can get because it presents really well compared to other PSA 1 cards I've seen. I'd be happy with all those cards in my collection.

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Mark! I was fairly happy with the grades. I think the key piece of the Clemente was the pencil line across his neck (I missed that when I sent it in). I appreciate you watching and commenting!

@troyscards68 7 ай бұрын

Ive been considering getting my more iconic 68s graded. How is a vintage submission priced? I thought PSA priced by estimated value of final graded card? Nice cards though!

@returntocollecting 7 ай бұрын

Thanks Troy! Their pricing for those aren't bad. They charge $25-$30 for 68 topps. If you have a Mantle that grades above a 7, they'll charge you an upfee for that. You can claim they are all worth $499 (max value for that grading level), they'll then bill you the difference after they're graded. They're typically pretty cool about it. Unless is clearly much more valuable, they won't charge the upfee.
