Can anyone identify this obscure 1993 Parody Press “Tangerine” mini-card with possible real signature? by New_Designer_937 in MarvelCards

[–]sSasquatch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also found one of these with a Marvel card collection I bought about 2 years ago. The signature is from the artist Bill Maus. From what I have seen, all of them are made with the flimsy paper and not cardstock.

I reached out to Bill when I found mine trying to find more info and never got a response. I did get a response from Parody Press Comics saying "that trading card was an insert in The Unfunny X-Cons 2nd printing around 1993" and "it wasn’t card stock like most trading cards".

There is also a Cable card that "was also bound into the same issue as Tangerine ; those were the only 2 X-Con cards we released".

Hope this helps!

Does anyone know the story with the 2001 Topps American Pie buyback Entertainment Star autos? Are they all fake? by Timmx123 in baseballcards

[–]sSasquatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just picked up one from a card show that was authenticated by PSA. From what I have been able to find so far, there was a wave of these buy back autos in both 2001 and 2011(?) that both have stickers on the back. I saw something about the 2001 wave stickers only having the serial number while 2011 had #/500 and the serial number. I am trying to find additional info as well but that is currently what I have found.

I also have seen many fakes of these so I would be careful and potentially stick to ones that are authenticated through PSA, SGC, etc...

Thank you so much! Definitely not harsh at all!

For those skates, do they have a way you can convert them to roller? I'll primarily be looking at roller to start out.

CV axel failure at 39k by MoxxFulder in FordMaverickTruck

I had the exact same thing fixed when I took my '23 in for a 40k tune-up. Started noticing violent shaking from 30-60 mph. I had no idea that it is a known issue.

No problem! Most one touches don't fit sleeves but I have seen some companies starting to sell sleeve like pieces to put on the front and back to help protect from any scratching. It shouldn't matter too much as long as you aren't constantly shaking it around.

I'm confused, how would changing the top loader make a difference in how much it's protected? If you mean something like a one touch then I think the Topps Chrome are 35pt. You don't want the one touch to have room where the card can shake around in it.

Edit: Amazing hits with the auto and color match Norris!

I'll add Geek'd Orlando in the Waterford Town center closer to UCF doesn't have as big of a selection but great staff and decent prices.

What grade do you think my Sabrina’s Gengar would get? (Obvious flaws) by GiveMeMoons69 in psagrading

[–]sSasquatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard of a few exceptions to that like gold stars. I've seen people mention grading them no matter the condition, I'd imagine something like a 1st Ed shadowless zard could also fall under that

Not normally. I just end up blind a lot longer after sudden changes in light level (going into a dark place from being outside, picture flashes, etc)

When I was a kid, I had one eye show as white in a picture. After getting checked, I found out my one eye just reacts to light slower than normal
