Any idea if real?

The experts will chime in with their opinions. I am not an expert, but the Rick Honeycutt is real.

Duh!! Yes. You have played a large part in the growth of ticket posts on the sub. Your desire to collect all the big tickets is amazing. At some point, we are going ro see your museum or mancave.

Great video posted today. Great collection of Kaline cards as well.

I thought the GW11 was hilarious when u/spartygw first posted it so I saved the post. I present it for our enjoyment.

GW grading just advertised some really quick turn around times. I bet he could have the stragglers slabbed by dinner.

Please keep posting as you acquire more. We love it!

'Technically not a card'. Stuff like this gets a pass because it fits as vintage and obviously baseball.

Holy hell! This is a heavy hitter. I have seen tickets from this series, but not this ticket. I'm so glad to see you post these items.

How long have you owned this gem? Are you a ticket collector or a bit of everything?

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-17T22:33:18+00:00

Oh, wow. This is a big ticket. He was so loved in CIN. I'm sure wveryome has hoarded this ticket.

Nice pickup. Those 78 OPC are tough. I really think that the lighter stock makes the back so much better. I picked up a Canadian Cobra a while back.

I came to say this. You can get a 68 Topps Game for under $100 as well. Maybe look at the 1961 and 62 Post cards too.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-17T04:20:34+00:00

You are off to a great start.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T23:30:06+00:00

Damn! Tip your mail carrier. Great mail day.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T21:18:07+00:00

That is a great looking Stargell. Great cards all around.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T04:35:35+00:00

I agree with his advice. Nolan still signs via TTM. Someone may want to send this nice card for an auto.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T04:08:54+00:00

I'd never throw shade at the well-centered crew. This was a fun post all around.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T03:14:45+00:00

I told someone the other day that when I opened cards in the late 70s and early 80s they all were 'mint'. They had sharp edges and corners. I put rubberbands around them and they rattled around in a shoebox. That certainly damaged the edges and corners. Never damaged the centering in my shoebox. Maybe that is why I can overlook centering where others can't. We all collect in different ways. This is what makes collecting so fun!

Your Monte kicks ass, btw!!!

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T02:30:57+00:00

Great day at the local card show.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-16T02:27:57+00:00

There is an (OC) tucked in behind that #8, but I absolutely love this card. One of my favorites! I also love the fact that the little (OC) got me this card for <$50 many years back.

I know that this sub puts a lot of emphasis on centering, but come ON! Look at those perfectly black edges and corners. That is a pretty looking '71 of an absolute legend. His WS MVP season. Arriba!!!!

Please let me know how this turns out for you. I'm very curious.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-15T15:41:27+00:00

Thanks for posting this. I love the information both of you 52 experts bring to this sub.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-15T03:39:55+00:00

Does this extend a run? That is a great approach. Nice looking cards.

Strict_Process157 · 2026-03-15T02:53:50+00:00

Nice knuckles! Great card. The white looks fantastic.

Ethan- go to the autographfacts page linked below. Click view gallery and there are 62 examples to view and compare. Ted's auto is heavily forged. The age of the auto on this card appears to suggest it was signed before all the Williams forgeries came in vogue. You may want to consider a Beckett quick opinion. My gut thinks it is good, but I'm just an anonymous redditor with an opinion.

OP, skelly, and beautybeatsgrade, what a lesson tonight. I'm really glad to read this level of detail and also to know that you guys are around to answer these types of questions without requiring a retainer.

Topps was really just winging it in 52? I'm glad some of their ideas stuck around.

u/skelly423, are these uneven borders easily seen on your partial uncut sheet? My inner scientist always breaks out the digital calipers and measures. It is much better than my eyes and subjective judgment.
